Fantasy Premier League API Pipeline

Technology used: Docker, Airflow, DBT, PostgreSQL, Python, Power BI

Abstract

A data pipeline to extract data from Fantasy Premier League (FPL) API.

The goal was to create a Power BI report for my FPL team of 2023-2024 season using the FPL API. Airflow was used to orchestrate a pipeline that would extract data for my FPL, transform and store it in a postrgeSQL database and report on it in Power BI.

Architecture

  • extract_FPL.py extracts data from FPL API and performs basic transformations and stores it in a tmp folder
  • upload_postgeSQL.py creates database tables and loads the extracted data into PostgreSQL
  • DBT models transform the raw data in PostgreSQL and generate data marts
  • Data marts are used to create a FPL Power BI Report
  • Airflow is used to run the python files and dbt models on a set schedule.
  • Airflow and DBT are installed in docker containers

Output

FPL Power BI Report visualizes the FPL data.

  • Gameweek: Provides stats such as highest score, average score, captaincy, top scorer and chips used for the previous, current and upcoming gameweek
  • Fixtures: Shows key fixtures and key players for the upcoming gameweek
  • My Team: Provides stats such as current rank, total points and transfers made for my FPL team
  • Team Transfers: Provides information on players transferred in and out of my FPL team and transfers made for the current gameweek and season
  • Transfer Planner: Shows key fixtures and players in the remaining gameweek as well as the fixture difficulty rating provided by FPL to plan out future transfers
