Premier League attendances 2025/26: Early season averages

We are now 11 games into the 2025/26 Premier League season, and the table makes for fascinating reading as just four points separate Sunderland in fourth and Everton in 13th.

The title race is also looking more interesting after the most recent set of fixtures, as Man City closed the gap on Arsenal to just four points following their win over Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium.

At the other end of the table, the three newly-promoted sides are all outside of the bottom three. If even one of them can beat the drop this year, then it will be progress for competitiveness in English football, but it currently looks like all three have a good chance of staying up, with Wolves in danger of being cut adrift.

How have the Premier League average attendances been shaping up so far, and are performances already shaping turnout at PL stadiums? Let's take a look.
