Previously Ed maintained an Excel file with points calculations: points_calculation. This is still available here for historical reasons, but I unfortunately don't maintain this as I don't have a version of Excel to update this like Ed used to, and I also have a separate archive and associated software that I update and use to calculate the FIFA rankings.

If there are any volunteers I can make this available to take it over.

For simulation of football matches, describing the why and how, see here: simulations (28 December 2020).

For the "new" FIFA ranking calculation post 2018, there's a comparative analysis part I and part II  (24 October 2018).


Those looking for the UEFA European Cup team/country rankings should go to Bert Kassies' UEFA European Cup Football website. Those looking for the IFFHS Club World Ranking should visit the IFFHS website.
