Crowds
Every figure below is drawn from the 55 of 73 played matches that carry a recorded gate (75.3%), spanning 2009–2026. 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.
By Competition
Competitions with fewer than 3 recorded gates are left out — one match is not an average. Pick a competition to scope the whole page to it.
Who Fills the Ground
Average gate at our ground by visiting club, minimum 3 recorded meetings.
Grounds, and How Full They Get
| Ground | Matches | Avg | Best | Capacity | How Full |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica Lisboa | 23 | 26,997 | 50,314 | 68,100 | 39.6% |
“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 Kickoff Time
Kickoff times cover only the 24 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.
