Matomo differentiates between pages like index.html and INDEX.html. If case sensitivity is not crucial for your site, you can normalise URLs by adding the following code to your Matomo JavaScript Tracking tag:

// Add this code:
_paq.push(['setCustomUrl', location.href.toLowerCase()]);
// Just before this line:
// _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
