Maybe a bit, no more no less.
While we can debate the impact of home advantage for the team, I think that home advantage is a big advantage for us (meaning the supporters) as it means that if we make it all the way to MLS Cup (sorry, when we make it), it will be here at BMO Field. So way more of us will be able to be there in person!

And, in terms of the debate, it is a statistical fact that the home advantage is more meaningful in soccer/football than in any other sport (I read some academic work saying that is because home crowds do have an impact on the refs, and since the refs can have a greater impact on the game in soccer than in other sports, home advantage is bigger in soccer than other sports).
