- (This obviously only works for an even number of teams, but what the heck :-)
-
- Line the teams up in two rows:
-
- Week 1:
-
- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 < Home
- 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 < Away
-
- Week 2:
-
- 20 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 < Home
- 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 < Away
-
- Week 3:
-
- 19 20 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 < Home
- 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 < Away
-
- ...
-
- By exchanging the 2 rows each week, you can obtain an almost perfect spread
- of
- Home vs. Away matches seen from the individual teams point of view.
