Relative reduction in goals conceded: +32.9%; Comparison baseline: away goals conceded per match.
Relative points change: +84.7%; Comparison baseline: away points per match.

Formulas, totals and exclusions

Home / away goals per match: 1.57 / 1.05. Goals conceded per match: 1.05 / 1.57. Home / away points per match: 1.78 / 0.96 (3 for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss). Home wins / draws / away wins: 172 / 86 / 80.

H and A are home and away goals per match on the same 338 fixtures. Scoring change = 100 × (H − A) / A. Conceding reduction = 100 × (H − A) / H, because home conceded = A and away conceded = H. Points change = 100 × (home points per match − away points per match) / away points per match.

Scoring and conceding are related views of the same score pairs, with different comparison baselines; they are not independent advantages. The points measure uses match results, not an average of those percentages. These relative changes can be negative or exceed 100%; they are not probabilities. A zero comparison baseline is unavailable, even for 0–0 scores.

Pooled goals, home / away: 529 / 355. Pooled points: 602 / 326. All rates use the same fixture denominator, without averaging club percentages.

338 distinct identified fixtures are stored. Excluded marked-finished fixtures: 0 with conflicting duplicate scores or clubs; 0 with missing, invalid or identical club identities; 0 with missing or invalid scores. Another 0 fixtures have conflicting statuses and cannot enter the marked-finished count.

These are observed rates, with no claim of statistical significance. These are our descriptive formulas, not a reconstruction of another provider's method or a forecast. Restored from the 11 October backup; current updates are not connected. Additional fixtures may be absent from the snapshot.
