Title: Home advantage?
Post by: EasyforDennis on November 21, 2020, 05:44:28 pm
Due to no supporters attending GAMES, home advantage has gone out of the window this season. Interested to hear that in the Premier League there have been significantly more away wins than home wins so far. It would be interesting to see if the same applies in the EFL.

There has been as many away wins as home wins . The lack of crowds has played its part and its a poor excuse if you loose IMO !!!

With the away wins you’d be surprised how many have both teams scoring and have a penalty to the away team

Another factor to consider is less referee intimidation with no fans in the ground.

Home advantage is best measured by goals scored home vs away rather than results. There is still a HA although it’s reduced.

Ridiculous. Its results that matter not goals scored.

One leads to the other obviously, if there are more home goals than away goals there will be more home wins in the long term. Goals is the way to measure HA across the board.

So in a hypothetical situation where we have played 20 games. 10 at home where we have won 1 game 10-0 and lost the others 1-0 each game. 10 away where we have won 9 of the 1-0 and drawn the other 0-0.
We are better at home because we have scored more goals at home?

You can’t judge anything on a 20 game sample anyway so that’s just nonsense and implies how much you actually know.
