I think it’s a waste of time and effort trying to concoct some clever mathematical formula. No formula can take account of form, conditions, injuries, sending-offs, etc, etc. So just because it’s complicated won’t make it any fairer.
That’s why I suggested just declaring all outstanding games 0-0 draws.
OK, in reality, the top teams would probably do better and the bottom teams MAY do worse, but none would be unfairly treated over any other and the current positions would barely change.
Then the only games needing to be played would be play-off semis and final (4 teams, 3 games max).
