In this paper, we introduce the models of permutations with bias, which are
random permutations of a set, biased by some preference values. We present a
new parametric test, together with an efficient way to calculate its p-value.
The final tables of the English and Spanish major soccer leagues are tested
according to this new procedure, to discover whether these results were aligned
with expectations.Comment: Bibliography updated. Thanks to Prof Karlsson to have suggested the
