Winning at home without an audience, increasingly difficult

He public factor he was relieved, in the resumption of LaLiga Santander 2019-20, much more decisive than many could believe until then. The percentage of local wins In the eleven days played behind closed doors, it plummeted with respect to the one registered until then: specifically, went from 47.8% to 40.9%, while the visiting victories went from 24.4% with the public in the stands (first 27 days) to 31.8% with the empty stands in the last eleven.

This trend, disputed (although partially some of them) the first five days of the course 2020-21It has not only been maintained but has been noticeably accentuated. So much so that local victories now exceed by just three percentage points that of the visitors.

Until the break, 47.8% of local wins, which went to 40.9% in the final eleven days and 37.2% in LaLiga 2020-21

In the 43 games played so far in LaLiga Santander 2020-21 there have been 16 home wins, 12 draws and 15 away victories. Or what is the same, a 37.2% of local victories by 34.9% of visitors. The percentage of draws, curiously, remains practically unchanged: it was 27.9% before the break, it became 27.8% after the restart and is 27.3% this year.

There are also notable differences in the percentages of the penalties awarded to local teams or visitors with and without an audience. In the first 27 days of last year, 69 penalties were awarded in favor of the local teams and 34 in favor of the visitors, which translated into percentages represents 67% for the locals and 33% for the foreigners.

And on penalties, it went from 67% in favor of the locals before the break to 52.2% after the return and to 58.3% today

In the last eleven days, with no public in the stands, 24 were in favor of the owners of the land and 22 of the visitors. As a percentage, 52.2% (almost 15% less than before) they favored the former and 47.8% (almost 15% more) to the latter.

And in what we have of course, seven out of twelve penalties have been in favor of the locals (58.3%) and the five remaining (41.7%), of visitors. Percentages not as marked as those of the final stretch of the last League but significantly different from those recorded when there was an audience in the stands. One factor, that of the support of the fans, which is key both for what it supposes of psychological support to the footballers and for pressure to the collegiate.
