This section explains information about data-driven approaches in football.  This section examines GPS units used in team sports, which enable the measurement of player positions, speed, and movement patterns. In the current literature, GPS-based athlete tracking systems objectively measure athletes’ individual efforts and physical stress, analyze competition performance, evaluate the workload of athletes in different positions, determine training fatigue, and track changes in physiological needs. With the development and adoption of microtechnology in sports, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) products such as three-axis accelerometers, magnetometers, and gyroscopes have been integrated into GPS devices. Thus, GPS and MEMS together have begun to provide practitioners with a wide range of data on athletes’ physical loads and activity profiles. Parameters commonly used in GPS systems include total distance, acceleration, deceleration, moderate speed distance, high speed distance, and sprint distances. The purpose of this study is to explain the importance of a data-driven approach in football.
