Home advantage is a very powerful thing.

So the figures you quote don't surprise me at all.
Literally?

I've seen it suggested that away teams are more likely to go for it in empty stadiums. Reading uni did a study of closed doors games and found the home away ratio was very different to a normal league game.

Worth bearing in mind if anyone is putting bets on.
