Beijing time, December 24: Just now, the British media telegraph announced the average number of seats per game in the major stadiums of the Premier League this season. In first place is Manchester United, with Old Trafford having 72,998 home games per game this season, the most of all Premier League teams. Of course, since Manchester is a first-tier city in the UK. Therefore, the population is also relatively large, and the stadium is built to be larger than the average team.
This average attendance is on the one hand compared to the popularity of each team, on the other hand, it is also related to the size of the stadium. Like some small teams, their home stadiums can't reach 70,000 people even if they are full. In second place is Arsenal, with the Gunners averaging 59,567 per game this season, a staggering number again. Arsenal didn't fare well at the start of the season, but recently they have reversed the tide. Although the Gunners have been in a slump in recent years, their fans have never given up.
In third place is West Ham United, with the Hammers averaging 58,428 at home this season. This is also a good statistic. West Ham United have been very aggressive in their race for four this season, and they are also strong opponents of teams such as Manchester United and Arsenal on the road to 4. In fourth place is Tottenham, which has averaged 56,125 home seats this season. After Conte joined the team, Tottenham's popularity has increased to a certain extent. They will have to face a tougher schedule in the league. In 5th place is Liverpool, which has averaged 53,006 people per game this season, in fact, Liverpool's attendance is very high in terms of attendance alone.
Some of the focus events are basically full, but the overall population of Liverpool is not very large, so the corresponding stadium is not so large. I believe that fans who have watched liverpool matches know how terrifying their home stadium really is. In 6th place is Manchester City, with the Etihad Stadium averaging 52,552 people per game this season, which is also a staggering number. The Etihad, which has invested heavily in construction, is very technological in terms of modern equipment and the overall infrastructure of the stadium, and watching the game here also has a different experience.
In 7th place is Newcastle, where newcastle have an average of 50,720 home attendance. After being acquired by the consortium, Newcastle is believed to be renovated in the future infrastructure. In 8th place is Aston Villa, which has averaged 41,827 home attendances this season. Although their results have fluctuated this season, their passionate play style and rhythm have attracted a large number of fans.
And their goalkeeper Martin, because he is very good at playing psychological warfare in the game, has also attracted a lot of fans. In 9th place is Chelsea, the Blues actually have more fans, but the stamford bridge capacity is there. They have averaged 39,880 people at home this season, and London is actually very populous, but there are several Premier League teams here.
Overall, there is no benefit in building the stadium too big. In 10th place is Everton, who have averaged 38,799 home games this season. What do you think of this list?
