How Anfield’s new capacity will compare to Premier League rivals Liverpool when Arsenal are overtake
Liverpool’s owners FSG are renovating Anfield and boosting the capacity to 61,000, but how does it compare to their Premier League crivals?
For many years, Liverpool’s capacity at Anfield did not reflect the size of the club.
Liverpool, with six European Cups and 19 league titles, had a stadium that didn’t match its history and trophies. At least in terms of raw numbers compared to European rivals.
Even domestically, Anfield’s ability has paled in comparison to many of its rivals for years, with Manchester United in particular always far ahead. But things are changing.
FSG’s desire to increase revenue has seen Liverpool owners pour money into modernizing Anfield. The main stand was upgraded in 2016, increasing the stadium from just over 40,000 to around 53,000.
In June 2021, FSG were given the green light to expand the Anfield Road stand and further increase capacity to 61,000 seats, bringing the club level with most of their domestic and European rivals.

With Anfield’s new capacity opening to the public before the start of next season, where do you place Liverpool among Premier League sides in terms of overall capacity?

Sportcastinfo.com says: It’s good to see that Liverpool’s history and prestige is now reflected in the overall capacity of its stadium, putting it in line with the biggest teams at home and in Europe. It is quite remarkable to think that the Emirates, built by Arsenal at such a price as a state-of-the-art complex, are now outdated. Once the completed Anfield Road Stand comes into play at the start of next season, Anfield will be quite a sight on European nights.
