to compare this kind of frequency, you need a special statistical test
chi squared or fisher's exact test.
these tests will tell you that if you assume the true chances of a home first fixture are truly equal, the chance of the actual frequency which has occurred over the last 15 years is as follows:
about a 3% that arsenal get 11 home ties and us 5
about a 13% for chavski to get 9 and us 5
about a 35% chance for the mancs
now if youre being scientific, if the chance of the actual events that occurred was < 5%, thats regarded as "significant". ie the ACTUAL fixtures suggesst arsenal are getting a favourable or increased chance of a 1st home game compared with lfc.
so this is scientific standard proof that the fa favours arsenal
i could have told everyone that anyway - who needs scientists

Just look at the face: it's vacant, with a hint of sadness. Like a drunk who's lost a bet.
