Arsenal Football Club named the most expensive team to support

Based on factors including ticket prices and the cost of food and drink, Arsenal easily top the pile of Europe's priciest club.

Betting.com has put together a comprehensive league table of which fans will be shelling out the most to get through the turnstiles during the 2022/23 Premier League season, which is less than a month away from kicking-off.

The table has been put together after taking into account season ticket costs (the lowest available adult price), average train travel to away games, and the cost of away tickets, which are capped at £30 each.

Gooners (Arsenal fans) planning a trip to the Emirate Stadium can expect to splash out a whopping £62 on average for a match day ticket – that's 1.5 times more than the average amount (£43) and 2.1 times more than the Aston Villa (£30) – who have the least expensive match day ticket. Yet, it's West Ham fans who are forking out the most money to watch a match – with the average ticket costing £65.

Newcastle United fans will be splashing out more than any other supporters to catch the Magpies home and away, according to OBLG.

They might have new controversial yet well-off Saudi Arabian backers - who have even introduced an away strip in the oil-rich country's flag colours - but the expensive travel to and from the North East means fans of The Toon will be forking out heavily on train tickets.

The OBLG said: "Hardcore Newcastle fans will be wishing they had a fraction of the wealth their Saudi-backed owners have at their disposal, as our research shows they will have to pay the most compared to any other club to follow their side during the upcoming season."

The North Londoners are followed by Chelsea in the standings - with a day at Stamford Bridge setting a fan back an average of £68.71.

Spanish giants Real Madrid come in third, costing £55.91 per match - still nearly £20 cheaper than a day out at the Emirates.

Meanwhile, Liverpool (£55.68) come in fourth, following by German powerhouses Bayern Munich (£54.92).

Manchester United are the fourth-most expensive in the Premier League and sixth overall, costing an average of £53.41 per game.

Thanks to charging an almost obscene amount to watch a game, Arsenal also topped Uefa's list of top-earners based on ticket sale alone, at £102m for 2016-17 alone.

That is in spite of having a much inferior capacity compared to the likes of Old Trafford and Barcelona's Nou Camp.

In terms of the overall top earners in Europe, taking absolutely everything into consideration, Man United come out on top.

he least expensive Premier League team to be a fan of is Leeds United, the total cost to attend a match day is an affordable £82.40, more than £20 cheaper than the average £109.20.

Fans will also find that some of the food and drink at Elland Road is cheaper than the average, with a pint of beer costing just £3.60 and a pie costing £3.10. In comparison, the average cost of a pint at a Premier League stadium is £4.08.

On average (with the cost of drinks, food, a match programme, team kit and a match day ticket), a Premier League fan can expect to spend around £109 for a day out at the footy.

Final thoughts!

Arsenal dominated the first 15 minutes, but after that, it was all about PSG at their home. 

Luis Enrique has done a tremendous job with PSG and created leaders in different positions. 

Donnarumma has been a beast under the post. Hakimi, with 21 goal contributions, is now one of the best. Vitniha, Neves and Marquinhos are one of the best in their positions as well. 

Dembele is running for a potential Ballon d'Or finish. So, the credit should go to Enrique for all his efforts. 

Arsenal had their chances, but they failed to take them. Saka did score but missed one as well. 

So, it will be Inter Milan vs PSG in the final in Munich. Thank you for staying up with us. 

Good night, and I will see you on 1st June in the final. Till then, take care and enjoy football.

Founded in 1888, the English Football League started as the Football League, the oldest football league in the world. In 1892, the Football League First Division kicked off and continued till 1991 as the top flight football league in England.

Later, in 1992, the Premier League was created and replaced the Football League First Division as the top flight football league in England.

In this article, we will discuss all the teams with the most titles in England's top flight football. Till now, 24 clubs have been able to lift the top flight title.

Premier League: History

The Football League First Division was the top-tier football league in England from 1888. But in the post-1970s and early 1980s, the league started to reach a low point with incidents like the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster, which banned them from UEFA Competitions for five years. 

But after England reached the 1990 FIFA World Cup semi-finals, the downward trend started to reverse. The stadium started to get filled, and the Taylor Report on stadium safety standards also helped clubs to create better standard stadiums. 

After a dispute over TV rights and maximising the club revenue, the big five clubs, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Arsenal, opted to come out of the Football League First Division and create another league. 

At the close of the 1990-91 season, the FA Premier League was formed, and from 1992-93 the Premier League era started with 22 teams. Manchester United were the first Premier League champions and went on to win seven of the first nine trophies.
