soccer bet voided because venue changed but teams still played same day

Had a soccer bet voided today and I'm pretty sure it's because they switched the stadium last minute, even though both teams still played and it kicked off the same day. Not even a different city, just across town. The bet would’ve hit too, which is peak comedy. I get the logic, maybe there’s some wild home/away stats or whatever, but come on - does anyone actually see that much of a difference if it’s still the same teams, same day, and barely even a different pitch?

This isn’t the first time this has happened to me and I feel like it’s always with soccer, never other sports. Made me question if I should be adding “venue changes” as another column on the endless spreadsheets. Feels like overkill until stuff like this burns me. Do other sportsbooks have different rules about this, or is it just a universal thing and I should expect more bets to get voided every time there’s a minor change?
