2 simple reasons:
1) at home, they are expected to win while away, they are not ... so less pressure
2) at home, with the expectation, they have to initiate the attacking continuously while away, they can play counter-attack ... which is their forte

The problem with Pool when it comes to difficult ties in the league is always one of mentality. When it's a cup game, we have always raised our game and we have beaten the rest of the top four. I just haven't seen the same self-belief and will to win in the league games. The home game against Scum was a good example - we showed them too much respect.
If we can have this 'cup final' mentality, we can win the away games. A big if. But we will need to stay in touch with the leaders till those games come around. So let's take care of Man City first.
