Head-to-Head Comparison

Every figure is our record against the club in that column — we hold no results for matches these clubs played against anyone else. Green marks the opponent we do better against, not the better club. Country, ground and coefficient are the club’s own.

Pick at least two opponents to compare.

All competitions count, so an opponent met in one league season and one met across forty years of cups are not comparable on totals alone — the per-game rates are the fair reading. Crowd figures are only averaged over matches where a gate was actually recorded.
