The full-time whistle brought an almighty roar from the Elland Road faithful as Leeds United marked their return to the Premier League with a battling win against Everton.
On a night when the Whites’ famous old home rocked throughout the game, a penalty from summer signing Lukas Nmecha helped Daniel Farke’s men to all three points and ensured their season got off to a positive start.
A heavy defeat at title contenders Arsenal followed but Elland Road provided yet another lively atmosphere a week later as Leeds battled to a goalless draw against Newcastle United to round off the opening month of the season with a solid return.
Unsurprisingly, the sold-out signs were up at Elland Road for both of the first two home games of the campaign and that will be a regular feature of matchday throughout the season.
But how does the average attendance from both games compare to attendances across the Premier League throughout last season?
