I know there are a lot of things that can change, but how big you would estimate the home advantage to be? When playing with pretty normal pace?

I know you can't say anything very accurate, but would ~15p seem about right?

My thinking is that HCA is worth somewhere around 8 points, but it is only an uneducated guess.

You mean 8 points per team or as a whole?

My 15 points in total would mean 7-8 points per team.

Probably my guess is as educated as yours...

My guess would be that if two teams have the same talent, are basically identical, and play just as well as the other, the home team would win by 7-8 points. Again, just a guess...

Alright, then we have the same guess... There would be a ~15 point difference between home and away match...

Any others with some numbers or with a "good" guess?
