| Summary: | The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of the local factor on the results of the Catarinense Football Championship games. As research data, the results of 367 games from the First division of the Catarinense Football Championship, between 2016 and 2019, were selected. Data were collected through electronic summaries, available on the Santa Catarina Football Federation website, and then tabulated in a program database in Microsoft Excel, where a descriptive statistical analysis was performed. To calculate the advantage of playing at home, it was used the Pollard method, which considers that there is an advantage when there is more than 50% performance at home. The study results showed that from the games analyzed, the home teams won 172, tied 101 and lost 94, resulting in performance of 56.04 points earned. When analyzing the Champion teams campaign from each year, a similar advantage was observed, with values varying from 70 to 80%. It is concluded with this study that the fact of playing at home represents a very important advantage for the home team, increasing the chances of victory, and, for a team to have a chance of winning, it's important to earn many points at home games |
