The Premier League clubs with the highest average attendances in 2025/26 | OneFootball

The Premier League once again filled out stadia all over the country for an action packed campaign that concluded with Arsenal lifting the trophy. 

England plays host to numerous top-class football grounds, but it can difficult to get your hands on tickets at the best of times, especially at the biggest clubs.

But which ones welcomed the most fans through the turnstiles this past year?

The Premier League clubs with the highest average attendances in 2025/26:

10. Aston Villa (Villa Park) – 41,977

Aston Villa drew almost 42,000 spectators to their home games this season, but that number will be reduced next season when work begins on the North Stand. The redevelopment will expand Villa Park’s capacity to over 50,000 when complete, with the ground set to host matches at Euro 2028.

9. Sunderland AFC (Stadium of Light) – 46,417

Sunderland shoot right into the top ten following their promotion to the Premier League in 2025, pushing Chelsea down to 11th. The Stadium of Light will play host to European football next season after Regis Le Bris led the Black Cats to qualification for the UEFA Europa League.

8. Newcastle United (St. James’ Park) – 52,095

Newcastle easily beat their north east rivals after attracting nearly 53,000 fans every other week. The Magpies are looking to either either expand St. James’ Park or build a huge new ground on Leazes Park, but it would be a real shame to lose such an iconic stadium.

7. Everton (Hill Dickinson Stadium) – 52,132

Everton are back amongst the big dogs when it comes to attendance after moving into their new home. The Hill Dickinson Stadium fills 13,000 more people than Goodison Park, which now plays host to the Toffees women’s team.

6. Man City (Etihad Stadium) – 52,640

Manchester City have expanded their stadium after completing work on the North Stand. Renamed after Pep Guardiola, the renovated stand opened on the final day of the season, allowing over 60,000 fans to witness Pep Guardiola’s last game as manager. With almost 8,000 extra seats added, the Etihad is now the fourth largest ground in the Premier League.

5. Arsenal (Emirates Stadium) – 60,217

It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years since the Emirates Stadium opened its doors. Barely a seat was left empty this season as the club marched towards their first title in 22 years. In October the club revealed plans to expand the capacity to over 70,000.

4. Liverpool (Anfield) – 60,389

Anfield has undergone major development over the past decade and a half, taking the ground’s capacity from around 47,000 to 61,000. Even though it’s been a frustrating season for the Reds, the famous ground has been almost full every other week.

3. Spurs (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium) – 61,003

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a world-class structure, but it has played host to anything but world-class football over the past two years.

2. West Ham United (The London Stadium) – 62,347

West Ham’s adoption of the former 2012 Olympic Games stadium has allowed them to sell a boatload of tickets, but it hasn’t helped them on the pitch this season as they fell through the trap door to the Championship.

1. Man Utd (Old Trafford) – 73,975

Manchester United continue to boast the highest average attendances in English football, as they have done for many years, although they do have plans to build a new stadium to replace the once great but now declining Old Trafford.
