La Liga leads the ranking for home points share, while Serie A stands out as the most balanced competition
In football, the idea of home advantage is treated almost like a law. The crowd is louder, the surroundings are familiar, and the pressure usually shifts towards the visitors. Yet across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues in 2025/26, that edge has not looked equally strong everywhere. In some competitions, home grounds have remained genuine fortresses. In others, teams have shown they are just as capable of taking control on the road.
That is what led Winsportsonline to examine how advantageous the home factor has really been across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues in 2025/26. The report reveals that La Liga has produced the strongest home edge, with clubs collecting 581 points and 167 wins on their own grounds, while Serie A has been the most balanced league in the study, with a far smaller gap between 514 home points and 445 away.
La Liga also provides the only club in the entire study with a perfect home record, as Barcelona have won all 17 of their home matches so far. At the opposite end of the same measure, Verona, Tondela and AVS have managed just one home victory each, the joint-lowest total in the study, while Wolverhampton and Pisa are the only teams still without an away win. Meanwhile, Elche are the most home-reliant side in the dataset, earning 81.58% of their points on home soil, while Tottenham are the biggest away-leaning outlier after taking only 29.73% of their points at home. Bayern Munich, Porto and PSV stand out in a different way, as they are the league leaders across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues to have earned more points away than at home.
Key Takeaways:
- La Liga shows the strongest home factor across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues in 2025/26, with clubs earning 62.68% of their total points at home, while Serie A is the most balanced league on 52.94%

Share of Points Won in Home Matches
Across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues in 2025/26
The broader league picture shows that the home factor is far from equal across Europe’s Top 7 Leagues in 2025/26. La Liga stands out as the most home-driven competition in the study, with clubs earning 62.68% of their total points in home matches. Ligue 1 follows on 60.38%, just ahead of the Eredivisie on 60.18%, making those the only three leagues where home sides have provided more than three fifths of all points won.
At the other end, Serie A is the clear outlier in the opposite direction. Italian clubs have taken only 52.94% of their total points at home, making it by far the most balanced league in the report and the one where the home factor has been weakest. Liga Portugal also sits on the lower side at 55.20%, while the Premier League and Bundesliga occupy the middle ground on 56.32% and 57.08% respectively, suggesting a noticeable but less pronounced home edge.
Premier League 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
The Premier League shows a clear but not overwhelming home edge in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 539 points in home matches compared with 416 away, while home teams have recorded 149 wins against 108 away victories. Overall, 56.32% of all Premier League points have been earned on home soil, placing England below La Liga, Ligue 1, the Eredivisie and the Bundesliga in the wider league ranking.
Among the leading sides, the pattern is mixed rather than uniform. Arsenal have taken 44 of their 76 points at home, with 14 home wins, while Manchester City have collected 39 home points from 12 wins. Manchester United and Aston Villa lean more heavily on home form, each winning 12 times on their own ground and earning 60.94% and 60.34% of their total points there. Liverpool also sit above the league average, with 34 home points, 10 home wins, and 58.62% of their total coming at Anfield.
Further down, Wolverhampton are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 13 of their 18 points earned there, a league-high 72.22%, while still waiting for a first away win. Leeds, Fulham and Newcastle also show a strong home skew, all taking at least 64% of their points in home matches. Tottenham sit at the opposite extreme, with only 11 home points but 26 away, meaning just 29.73% of their total has come at home. Chelsea and Everton are also notable because both have earned more points away than at home, with only 47.92% of their totals won on their own ground.
La Liga 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
La Liga shows the strongest home advantage of any league in the study in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 581 points in home matches compared with 356 away, while home teams have recorded 167 wins against just 91 away victories. Overall, 62.68% of all La Liga points have been earned on home soil, placing Spain at the top of the wider league ranking.
Among the leading sides, Barcelona are the strongest home team in outright terms. They have taken 51 of their 88 points at home and won all 17 of their home matches, while Real Madrid and Villarreal have each collected 43 home points from 14 home wins. Atletico Madrid match that 43-point home return too, but stand out for a different reason: proportionally, they are the most home-reliant of the top four, with 68.25% of their total points earned on their own ground.
Further down, Elche are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 31 of their 38 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 81.58%. Mallorca and Osasuna also stand out, with 76.32% and 76.19% of their totals coming in home matches. At the opposite end, Celta Vigo are the main away-leaning outlier, with only 20 home points compared with 27 away, meaning just 42.55% of their total has come on their own ground. Getafe are also below 50% on 47.73%, while the rest of the league generally continues to lean clearly towards home form.
Serie A 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
Serie A shows the weakest home advantage of any league in the study in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 514 points in home matches compared with 445 away, while home teams have recorded 134 wins against 117 away victories. Overall, 52.94% of all Serie A points have been earned on home soil, placing Italy at the bottom of the wider league ranking.
Among the leading sides, Inter are the strongest home team in outright terms, with 44 of their 82 points won at San Siro, while Napoli follow with 40 home points and Juventus with 37. Yet the picture at the top is notably balanced. Inter have also taken 38 points away, Napoli 30, and Juventus 28, while Milan are even more striking, with only 32 home points compared with 35 away. Roma stand out for a different reason, leaning more heavily on home form than the other teams in the upper group, with 39 of their 64 points earned on their own ground, equal to 60.94% of their total.
Further down, Torino are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 27 of their 44 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 61.36%. Atalanta also sit high on 60.00%, while Sassuolo and Cagliari both remain close behind. At the opposite end, Verona are the main away-leaning outlier, with only 8 home points compared with 12 away, meaning just 40.00% of their total has come on their own ground. Bologna and Parma are next on 42.86%, while Cremonese and Milan also sit below the 50% mark, underlining just how muted the home factor has been in Serie A compared with the other leagues.
Bundesliga 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
The Bundesliga sits in the middle of the wider ranking for home advantage in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 540 points in home matches compared with 406 away, while home teams have recorded 151 wins against 103 away victories. Overall, 57.08% of all Bundesliga points have been earned on home soil, which places Germany below La Liga, Ligue 1 and the Eredivisie, but above the Premier League, Liga Portugal and Serie A.
Among the leading sides, Bayern Munich are the standout case, but not because of home reliance. They have taken 41 home points from 13 wins, yet have done even better away, collecting 42 points from another 13 victories on the road. Borussia Dortmund follow with 38 home points, while Stuttgart have 36 and RB Leipzig 35. Stuttgart are the most home-leaning of the top four, with 62.07% of their total points earned on their own ground, while Bayer Leverkusen and Hoffenheim are far more balanced, with 51.72% and exactly 50.00% of their points coming at home.
Further down, Heidenheim are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 17 of their 23 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 73.91%. Freiburg and St. Pauli also stand out, with 65.91% and 65.38% of their totals coming in home matches. At the opposite end, Wolfsburg are the main away-leaning outlier, with only 10 home points compared with 16 away, meaning just 38.46% of their total has come on their own ground. Mainz are also below 50% on 45.95%, while Bayern’s 49.40% is notable because it comes from the league leaders rather than a mid-table side.
Ligue 1 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
Ligue 1 has one of the strongest home factors in the study in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 470 points in home matches compared with 317 away, while home teams have recorded 132 wins against just 82 away victories. Overall, 60.38% of all Ligue 1 points have been earned on home soil, placing France second in the wider league ranking behind only La Liga.
Among the leading sides, PSG are the strongest home team in outright terms, with 38 of their 70 points won in home matches, while Lens follow closely with 39 home points and Lyon with 37. Lens are especially notable because they combine one of the highest home totals in the league with clear reliance on home form, having earned 60.94% of their points there. Lyon lean even more heavily in that direction, with 61.67% of their total points coming on their own ground, while Lille are the most balanced of the upper group, splitting their return exactly evenly between home and away on 29 points each.
Further down, Le Havre are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 23 of their 32 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 71.88%. Lorient are almost identical on 71.43%, while Auxerre and Brest also stand out with 67.86% and 65.79% of their totals coming in home matches. At the opposite end, there are no major away-leaning outliers, but Lille, Toulouse and PSG are the least home-dependent sides near the top, all keeping the gap between home and away returns relatively small. That makes Ligue 1 a competition where the home factor remains powerful overall, even if a few stronger sides have managed to stay far more balanced than the rest.
Liga Portugal 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
Liga Portugal shows a relatively mild home factor in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 584 points in home matches compared with 474 away, while home teams have recorded 165 wins against 132 away victories. Overall, 55.20% of all Liga Portugal points have been earned on home soil, placing Portugal sixth in the wider league ranking and only ahead of Serie A.
Among the leading sides, Porto are the strongest team in outright terms, but not because of home reliance. They have taken 42 home points from 13 wins, yet have done even better away, collecting 43 points from 14 victories on the road. Benfica and Sporting are even more balanced, with both clubs splitting their totals exactly evenly between home and away on 38 points each. Braga also sit close to that pattern, earning 29 points at home and 28 away, which means the leading four in Portugal have all been remarkably even across both settings.
Further down, Vitoria Guimaraes are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 28 of their 42 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 66.67%. Alverca follow on 65.79%, while Moreirense are also high on 61.90%. At the opposite end, Tondela are the main away-leaning outlier, with only 10 home points compared with 15 away, meaning just 40.00% of their total has come on their own ground. Rio Ave are next on 42.86%, while Porto’s 49.41% is notable because it comes from the league leaders rather than a lower-table side.
Eredivisie 2025/26:
Points Won at Home and Away
The Eredivisie has one of the strongest home factors in the study in 2025/26. Across the division, clubs have collected 460 points in home matches compared with 328 away, while home teams have recorded 130 wins against just 83 away victories. Overall, 60.18% of all Eredivisie points have been earned on home soil, placing the Netherlands third in the wider league ranking behind only La Liga and Ligue 1.
Among the leading sides, PSV are the strongest team in outright terms, but not because of home reliance. They have taken 38 home points from 12 wins, yet have done even better away, collecting 40 points from 13 victories on the road. Feyenoord follow with 35 home points, while Ajax have 31 and AZ 30. Utrecht stand out for a different reason, leaning more heavily on home form than the other upper-table sides, with 30 of their 47 points earned on their own ground, equal to 63.83% of their total.
Further down, Heracles are the clearest example of a team relying on home comfort, with 15 of their 19 points earned there, the highest share in the league at 78.95%. Zwolle and Volendam also stand out, with 75.68% and 74.19% of their totals coming in home matches, while NAC Breda are also high on 68.00%. At the opposite end, PSV are the main away-leaning outlier, with only 48.72% of their points coming at home, while Excelsior are perfectly balanced on 50.00%. That makes the Eredivisie a league where the home factor is strong overall, but where the most powerful side has still managed to be even more effective on the road.
