Entity Framework Code First - two Foreign Keys from same table

I know it's a several years old post and you may solve your problem with above solution. However, i just want to suggest using InverseProperty for someone who still need. At least you don't need to change anything in OnModelCreating.

The below code is un-tested.

public class Team
{
    [Key]
    public int TeamId { get; set;} 
    public string Name { get; set; }

    [InverseProperty("HomeTeam")]
    public virtual ICollection<Match> HomeMatches { get; set; }

    [InverseProperty("GuestTeam")]
    public virtual ICollection<Match> GuestMatches { get; set; }
}


public class Match
{
    [Key]
    public int MatchId { get; set; }

    public float HomePoints { get; set; }
    public float GuestPoints { get; set; }
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }

    public virtual Team HomeTeam { get; set; }
    public virtual Team GuestTeam { get; set; }
}

You can read more about InverseProperty on MSDN: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/jj591583?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396#Relationships

It's also possible to specify the ForeignKey() attribute on the navigation property:

[ForeignKey("HomeTeamID")]
public virtual Team HomeTeam { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("GuestTeamID")]
public virtual Team GuestTeam { get; set; }

That way you don't need to add any code to the OnModelCreate method

Try this:

public class Team
{
    public int TeamId { get; set;} 
    public string Name { get; set; }

    public virtual ICollection<Match> HomeMatches { get; set; }
    public virtual ICollection<Match> AwayMatches { get; set; }
}

public class Match
{
    public int MatchId { get; set; }

    public int HomeTeamId { get; set; }
    public int GuestTeamId { get; set; }

    public float HomePoints { get; set; }
    public float GuestPoints { get; set; }
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }

    public virtual Team HomeTeam { get; set; }
    public virtual Team GuestTeam { get; set; }
}


public class Context : DbContext
{
    ...

    protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        modelBuilder.Entity<Match>()
                    .HasRequired(m => m.HomeTeam)
                    .WithMany(t => t.HomeMatches)
                    .HasForeignKey(m => m.HomeTeamId)
                    .WillCascadeOnDelete(false);

        modelBuilder.Entity<Match>()
                    .HasRequired(m => m.GuestTeam)
                    .WithMany(t => t.AwayMatches)
                    .HasForeignKey(m => m.GuestTeamId)
                    .WillCascadeOnDelete(false);
    }
}

Primary keys are mapped by default convention. Team must have two collection of matches. You can't have single collection referenced by two FKs. Match is mapped without cascading delete because it doesn't work in these self referencing many-to-many.
