Two northern powerhouses sit at the top of the list with Sheffield Wednesday edging out Middlesbrough for the number one spot.

Wednesday's Hillsborough home can hold nearly 40,000, whilst almost 35,000 can fit into the Riverside at full capacity.

Completing the top three is Derby County, their Pride Park ground opened in the late 90s, is able to hold 33,597 spectators and has hosted two full internationals since it was built.

Recently relegated to League One, Cardiff sit just outside the top three with their home boasting a 33,316 capacity.

Bramall Lane, the home of Sheffield United, is one of two grounds in the UK to have hosted both England football internationals and England Test cricket and has a capacity of 32,050.

Southampton and Leicester, both suffering a drop to the Championship after lengthy stays in the Premier League, have a place amongst the 10.

St. Mary's, the largest stadium on England's South Coast, holds 32,384 whilst the King Power holds slightly less at 32,259.

Completing the top 10 is the only stadium to currently host League Two football, Stadium MK.

Home to MK Dons, the two-tier, 30,500 capacity stadium was opened in 2007 and hosted several matches during the 2022 UEFA Women's Euros.
