Do You Think Home Advantage Is Still as Relevant as Before?

[Zippary]

With COVID and empty stadiums, we saw home advantage shrink. But now that crowds are back, is it returning to normal? Or has the game changed permanently? How much weight do you still give to home vs away when analyzing a match?

I think home advantage is slowly returning, but it’s not as dominant as before COVID. Some teams adapted so well to playing without fans that they still perform consistently even away. Personally, I use it as one of several factors when analyzing a match, but I don’t rely on it blindly. Things like travel fatigue, crowd intensity, and local weather still matter. When I did the 1xbet download app on my phone, I started tracking more live stats during games, and I noticed that smaller clubs actually benefit more from home games now than before. It’s an interesting shift.
