St James’s Park is back to its very best this season.

Eddie Howe’s side are currently unbeaten at St James’s Park this campaign having registered two wins and three draws in-front of their home supporters.

The renewed optimism around the club means the stadium is once again rocking on match days with an atmosphere to rival any stadium in Europe.

Wor Flags help cultivate a fantastic pre-match atmosphere whilst Howe’s side on the field, with their front-foot pressing game, help maintain that throughout the 90 minutes.

This has led to talk over the possibility of extending St James’s Park in-order to meet demands of the fan base.

Here, using data provided by Transfermarkt, we take a look at the highest attendances in Europe this season to see how Newcastle United’s 52,134 crowd ranks across the continent.
