    I’m looking at soccer specifically at the moment. It doesn’t seem like much of an advantage anymore. Are home teams overvalued now? What do you guys think?

        Home field advantage is only valid in Champions League or Europa League when teams have long flights and play in too hot or too cold conditions that players are not used to play.

          That’s how I’m seeing it as well.

              in any sport really, no crowds will essentially make all games neutral fields

                The HFA will decrease to some extent. There is still travel involved, and breaking of routines. You'll see the HFA you'll need to factor in will decrease, but it won't disappear entirely. Once there's a large enough sample size of games you should be able to adjust accordingly.
