Home advantage

[Its been emotional]

Is it more of an advantage in a small Country?
For example England
Take Russia playing tonight in St Petersburg it's 500 miles away from Moscow

Are you suggesting home advantage is based on the distance from a country's capital city?

[Its been emotional]

No I am suggesting the distance you need to travel to watch your Country at home especially in Wales or Great Britain games played at National stadiums only being half that distance

I think a lot of people live in Saint Petersburg as well you know

[Its been emotional]

I agree like playing the game in St David's but 500 miles away

I don't understand this thread at all

I think the point is if you play at home and the country is small in size , the higher density by area results in more support and exposure.

yeah but at Petersburg is a massive city, more than 5 million. ift isn't as though they will get noticeably less support there

Have a look at the map and see how vast Russia really is.
In the uk that’s like saying the Dundee’s (Scotland) to us, is a local derby. .
