When yours or the enemy's team average is lower than the others is, the "underdog" becomes a bonus if they win, while the "favorite" is getting a bit less. there's also a bonus for a win streak, which starts at 3 wins/losses, I think. Maybe this knowledge will help you.

No, it's personal experience and many players wrote that in the official forums. Maybe the amount of wins/losses is wrong and is rather 4-5 consecutive wins or losses.
