Every figure below is drawn from the 118 of 150 played matches that carry a recorded gate (78.7%), spanning 1978–2026. A match with no figure is left out rather than counted as an empty ground — the archive stores an unknown gate as a zero, and averaging those in would quietly drag every number on this page down.

Season by Season
Average gate per season, newest first; each bar is scaled against the best season shown. A season missing from this list has no recorded gate at all, which is not the same as a season nobody attended.

Who Fills the Ground
Not enough recorded home gates to rank visitors yet.
Grounds, and How Full They Get
“How full” divides the average gate by the ground’s capacity today. Grounds shrank when they went all-seater, so a historical average can exceed a modern capacity and read over 100% — the old Estádio da Luz is the clearest case. Minimum 3 recorded gates per ground.
When We Draw a Crowd
By Day of the Week
By Kickoff Time
Kickoff times cover only the 44 recorded home gates that carry a time as well as a date — most of the archive stores midnight where the time is simply not known, and those are excluded rather than filed under a small-hours kickoff that never happened. The day of the week, by contrast, is trustworthy on every row.
