The numbers were even at the battlesite at Salamis - the Persians had lost ships in a storm, they were deluded into sending a third of it to cover the back exit of the sea. This was further evened by the Persians having to split their fleet to go around both sides of the Island of Psyttalia, and had to go in line ahead to get through the straits. This allowed the waiting Greek fleets to attack their ships on on a broad front. As the course of the battle and the result showed, it was uneven in favour of the Greeks.

What advantage did Greece have over the Persians?
The Greeks were operating in 'internal lines', that is they were able to get their soldiers, weapons and food from local sources. The Persians had to bring theirs from Asia, and after their fleet was defeated at Salamis, had to send half their army home as they could not support them. With evened numbers, the superiority of the Greek armoured infantry was telling over the unarmoured Persian infantry, and they negated the Persian cavalry advantage by fighting on rough ground.
