How are matches picked?

Only from our archive: leading football competitions (priority ≤ 650) and the top two tiers in other sports. Each match gets an importance score: competition weight, final (semi-final), derby (both clubs share a home city), upset (winner's pre-match chance ≤ 40% by odds or our Elo model), goal fest (7+ goals), rout (5+ margin) and round anniversaries (5, 10, 25 … years). Dates are in UTC.
