Head to heads vs last season

Out of 32 games against sides we played in the league both last season and this we have done the following:

Had a better result: 9 times
Had the same result: 11 times (not including winning or losing margins)
Had a worse result: 12 times

On the face of that, there hasn't been too much of a difference between the two seasons.

Of the 9 occasions we've had a better result, we've picked up 16 points. We've turned 5 defeats into draws, 1 draw into a win and 3 defeats into wins.

Of the 12 occasions we've had a worse result, we've lost 23 points. We've turned 2 draws into defeats, 8 wins into draws and 2 wins into defeats.

We've had a greater fluctuation when you look at the promoted and relegated sides.

Last season we won 2 and lost 4 out of 6 games against the sides that went up. This season we've lost all 6 against last season's PL relegated sides.

Last season we won 4 and lost 2 to the sides that went down. This season we've won 2 and lost 3 against the sides that came up from League One.

So, of the 17 other sides in last and this season's Championship we're down by 7 points. Of the 6 promoted and relegated sides, we're down by 12 points.
