Was thinking, if we do go to playing behind closed doors who benefits the most? I can see home advantage going with no crowd to be the 12th man. Possibly a benefit for Thursday.

But I was wondering does it benefit the football plying teams rather than the high press teams who are running on Adrenalin and crowd passion? Or will it be a leveller eg. Wolves lose the benefit of Molineux and that drops our performance by 5% whilst removing the fear from the opposition.

Behind closed doors seems to assume that players and staff are immune which obviously isn't true.

In the league we've won 22 points at home... And 21 away from home (in 1 less game).

Plus we've got a similar goal difference home and away!

My hope is that we will benefit massively on Thursday with no crowd and the Govt here says matches can go ahead as normal so we benefit again with a rocking Molineux. I think , at some stage before the end of the season, we will have empty ground matches here, mainly so the season can be completed. Not sure what happens about the FA Cup Final and the final in Gdansk? Surely you can't play these behind closed doors? Unless they are played at a later date or for the EL final it is played in a 'safe' country, if one exists, which I doubt come May. At this time it is hard to see how all this will pan out.

Seriously,
Maybe Nuno should do training at Molineux instead of Compton to let the lads get familiar with the lack of atmosphere and empty stands.
