i'd be curious if there was an actual mathematical study about this. I think sometimes a thing is just a bad matchup where for whatever reason, teams just don't matchup well with each other. I do think sometimes if there's 2 very close teams and 1 team wins both games extremely close, it is harder for that team to beat them a 3rd time. Just law of averages.
