Swansea City will look to make it eight unbeaten at home when they welcome Bristol City this afternoon (12:30GMT).
The Swans' form at the Swansea.Com Stadium has been a major factor in moving clear from any relegation worries – and even tempting some into dreaming of the Championship play-offs.
Those hopes took a blow when they lost 2-0 at Derby County last weekend, with Swansea's away record looking like an Achilles heel.
Only bottom side Sheffield Wednesday (7) and struggling pair Oxford United (13) and West Brom (13) have collected fewer points on the road than the Swans' 14.
That's in contrast to the 28 points collected at home, the seventh highest in the division.
In addition, only once have Swansea failed to score in front of their own fans - the 1-0 October reverse against QPR.
Matos has not lost a league game in front of home fans since November, losing to Derby just 24 hours after he replaced Alan Sheehan.
Yet the Portuguese says there is little difference in how his side approach games home or away.
"It's just we have played against different opponents who bring different problems," Matos said. "Then it's about trying to sort those problems out and finding a way to win.
"Of course, it helps when you have the fans. It's clear when you have the connection it is important for us.
"But more important is how – in this game – Bristol City play and how we create problems for them.
"They [are a] really good team, organised, really fast counter, good in set pieces as well - and that's what we need to focus more than what we cannot control."
