Club A at Home
Club B Club B - Club A score
Club B Away		  

The matches shaded yellow are played at home for the team in the left-hand column.
So to read the table easily, (1) find the club in the left-hand column (in bold),
(2) read across to find its scores against each opponent as the first figure given;
(3) read across to find its Home games in yellow and its Away games in white.

If the number of wins is tied then the winner is determined by the who-beat-whom rule,
then by the number of games won.
