September 17 – Premier League attendances dipped below the season average following the return from the international break, with overall stadium capacity usage hitting a low of 97.82%—the lowest of the current campaign and below the same period last year.
Fulham led the way with a 99.3% capacity score at Craven Cottage, though the data may be slightly inflated due to the near-completion of their new stand. Meanwhile, Wolves posted the league’s lowest percentage of filled seats so far this season, recording just 94.39% capacity at Molineux.
Tottenham Hotspur narrowly claimed the largest matchday attendance of the weekend, edging out Liverpool, though both clubs fell to late losses against Arsenal and Nottingham Forest, respectively.
Only Fulham and Brighton surpassed the 99% capacity mark, compared to four clubs achieving that in matchday three.
With European football kicking off in midweek, the top nestle of Premier League clubs must scramble back for this weekend’s domestic action, beginning as West Ham host Chelsea in the early kickoff on Saturday.
