Of the 17 league matches played at Estádio do Dragão, only two had fewer than 40,000 fans in the stands, while 12 went beyond the 45,000 mark. The last one, against Santa Clara, drew more than 50,000, something that had not happened since 2018.

By day of the week, 2025/26 recorded the best average attendance for league matches played on Saturdays (48,603, across four matches), on Sundays (46,910, across seven matches), and the second-best ever on Mondays (42,306), behind only 2004/05.
