By that same logic has there ever been a study showing one or two extra games against one opponent as opposed to another has granted an advantage over the long haul?
(I'd point out as well that, back in the 16-team era, while the schedule originally called for 22 games against each opponent, the reality was that there were differences in the number actually played due to postponements. Nor was the home-away split against individual opponents, as well as for a club overall, equal either due to postponements.)

If so then shouldn't every club do about as well at home? The records from each season indicate there can be considerable differences.
