Premier League Fixture Difficulty Rankings – Form Stats
Here’s a few more stats to go along with our Premier League Fixture Difficulty Rankings.
Net form is calculating if the difference between recent form and season-long form, with the higher the positive number the better the recent form, the lower the worse.
For the Net Home v Away, the higher the net number the more home form bias, and the worse the negative score the more away bias.

Trends:
- Spurs are in full recovery mode and top of the last form v season form. Fulham too and Aston Villa doing their usual and overcoming a slow start.
- Hull’s fast start is slowing down.
- Coventry are the only team in the relegation one on the upward curve.

Trends:
- Given Liverpool only won their first home game last weekend, their away bias doesn’t surprise. Aston Villa and Nottm Forest are worth a follow away from home.
- Maybe not complete bankers, but Ipswich and Everton have a nice home bias.
