The lecture is for 2 hours, but the campus is an hour away and I'd have to catch the train for 40 minutes, then walk for 20 minutes through the city.
I just looked through the lecture notes and I already know all of the stuff off by heart because I learnt it in my final 2 years of high school, then I learnt it AGAIN last year in my degree at uni, and now I started another degree and I have to do it AGAIN. It's just the basic really easy stuff and I can do it with my eyes closed because I've learnt it 3 times now.
But they say to do well you should go to all lectures. It's just that I dont feel well, I want to stay home and do some maths catch-up and I already know the stuff they're teaching today.
Should I go or stay home?

If the lecture has not yet taken place, I can't imagine how you would know that you already know what the professor is going to say. Yes, you may know the general subject matter, but do you know how s/he is going to approach it? You may need to know that for the exam.
Secondly, there is a very slippery slope to missing class. If you are really ill, of course you shouldn't go to class and make everyone else sick, but if it is just that you aren't feeling your very best, that is easy to say most days, and you will find that if you skip this class, you will find another reason not to go in a week or two, and before you know it you will not have gone to class for weeks and will be panicking about your exam.

If you're going to school, and paying for it, why wouldn't you go to all of your classes? Consider moving closer to school. Going to it will only increase your chances for a better grade, so I say go for it.
Plus, what if your professor changes some of the topics in the lecture without you knowing? You're risking a lot by staying at home.

Don't assume you know everything they will be teaching.
The teachers often times mention things in class that will help out on the tests.
