Arsenal’s ground comes out on top in four of the six categories – location, view, facilities and police – to top the overall charts but lines up alongside West Ham, in 19th, for atmosphere.

Tottenham’s Whit Hart Lane, now demolished after 118 years of hosting football, was the best stadium for atmosphere according to 55,000 members to rate their visit.

However, a low ranking on police and location and middling reviews in food and drink and view leaves Tottenham in seventh overall.

According to FootballGroundMap.com, the worst stadium of the 20 teams participating in the 2016-17 Premier League stadium for Crystal Palace’s Selhurst Park having ranked last in view, facilities and food and drink and 19th place in location.
