It appears that matches with later kick-off times experience a significant increase in home advantage. The study, published in a prestigious journal, sheds light on the mysterious phenomenon that has long baffled fans. Could the key to success for teams lie in the darkness of the night?
As Matchweek 32 approaches, the spotlight shifts to the match officials who will oversee the games. Leading the pack is referee Paul Tierney, supported by assistants Scott Ledger and Mat Wilkes.
