Serie A

Inter Most Popular Team In Serie A

Luci a San Siro - 15 febbraio 2009The Lega Calcio has released the attendance numbers for the first ten games of the 2010/11 season and Inter are by far the best supported team.

Average Home Attendance by Team (top 5)

  • Inter Milan – 63,317
  • AC Milan – 49,475
  • Napoli – 40,330
  • Lazio – 35,560
  • Roma – 33,560

Two things struck me about Inter’s numbers. One is that the gap over AC Milan is really significant. The second, is that Inter leads Serie A not only in average attendance, but also in playing to capacity.

Attendance as % of Capacity

  • Inter – 79.13% (80,018 capacity)
  • Juventus – 77.39% (27,994 capacity)
  • Palermo – 70.51% (36,822 capacity)
  • Cesena – 67.50% (23,929 capacity)

Overall attendance is up in Serie A this season with an average gate of 24,574, compared to 23,200 in 2009/10 and 23,828 in 2008/09
