advantage small, medium and large maps 1v1

Hi all.
The advantage to red is massive, not only is it great to go first, but red always seems to have connections to start with, then it has a third advantage with re-stacks, it makes it very difficult for any player let alone a new player to have a chance.
I am not sure how the maps are generated, but surely it shouldn't be to difficult to get blue more connected to start with, therefore making it more of a match? Maybe generating red to the outsides, this way it would make it more equal.
Any comments welcomed
