Leeds United's average attendance compared to Man Utd, Aston Villa and other Premier League…

Leeds United have packed out Elland Road in the Premier League this season.

The Whites are 15th in the table with 30 points on the board after 26 games, six points clear of the relegation zone. 22 of those points have come at home, with the Elland Road crowd raising their levels every single week to help their players get over the line and one step closer to booking another season in the Premier League for 2026/27.

Leeds’ famous old ground has been packed out every week, with their 36,714 average crowd the highest the club has enjoyed since the 2002/03 campaign, according to Transfermarkt. But how does it stack up against the rest of the Premier League?

Premier League average attendances: How do Leeds United compare to rivals?

Club Average attendance Stadium

Manchester United 73,981 Old Trafford

West Ham United 62,453 London Stadium

Tottenham Hotspur 60,912 Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Liverpool 60,393 Anfield

Arsenal 60,213 Emirates Stadium

Manchester City 52,226 Etihad Stadium

Newcastle United 52,053 St. James’ Park

Everton 52,018 Hill Dickinson Stadium

Sunderland 46,247 Stadium of Light

Aston Villa 41,685 Villa Park

Chelsea 39,673 Stamford Bridge

Leeds United 36,714 Elland Road

Brighton 31,306 Amex Stadium

Nottingham Forest 30,443 City Ground

Wolves 29,768 Molineux

Fulham 27,132 Craven Cottage

Crystal Palace 25,028 Selhurst Park

Burnley 21,140 Turf Moor

Brentford 17,107 Gtech Community Stadium

Bournemouth 11,166 Vitality Stadium

Leeds’ average crowd is enough to place them nicely in mid-table, just behind the likes of Aston Villa and Chelsea, but ahead of Brighton, Nottingham Forest, Wolves and others.

Of course, Elland Road only holds a maximum of 37,645, with the 931 shortfall likely made up largely of spaces left for crowd segregation, some empty spots in the away end, and a small number of fans not showing up on the day. In short, if Leeds do finally confirm plans to expand the stadium, they are absolutely certain to continue filling it at a higher capacity.

There are no surprises at the top of the Premier League attendance table, where Leeds’ rivals Manchester United are averaging 73,981 at Old Trafford. Below them are West Ham United in their unpopular but huge London Stadium, while the top six is completed by Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City.
