Last season was played mostly behind closed doors and with a recent rise in covid infections, a return to empty stadiums will not be a popular move for football supporters.
If this were to come into effect, this would hit Newcastle United supporters even harder with Eddie Howe’s side needing loud support every week to drag them away from relegation danger.
With supporters being the heartbeat of football, something often forgotten in the modern game, here, using data provided by Transfermarkt, we have listed the average attendances of each Premier League ground so far this campaign to see which team have been best supported, and which sides have spare room to fill in their stadiums.
