It’s also one that’s hard to assess with somewhat of an unknown factor surrounding how fast or slow teams will start the season and which sides will come good or fade as the season goes on,
To make that verdict clearer analysists– working on behalf of OLBG – have crunched the data in an attempt to work out who has the best and worst starts, based on the first ten games of the season.
OLBG used the current ratings of each team based on their performances and results over the last season and added a modifier to assess home advantage based on the records of each side, home and away.
This created a scoring system that assigned a value to each club’s opening and final 10 fixtures of the season with a final score produced from the average across these games scored out of 100.
Here are their findings. (Teams ranked from easiest to hardest start)
