Anfield Stadium

Join me as discuss and rate the experience of visiting one of the most iconic stadiums in the Premier League – Anfield Stadium

 

Cost- 3/5

Match ticket was priced at £48 which I think is quite fair for a champions league match at a stadium as historic as Anfied. Food and drink were also both fairly priced at £4.40 for a beer and £3.40 for a pie inside the stadium. 

 

Facilities- 4/5 

The facilities at Anfield combine the rich history of the stadium with modern state of the art amenities that you would expect from a “Big 6” Premier League club. These facilities help provide an enjoyable matchday experience for supporters. The stadium capacity was recently increased in 2024 with the expansion of the Anfield Road end which brought the capacity of the stadium up to 61,276 making it the fourth largest football stadium in the premier league.  

 

Atmosphere- 3.5/5

The famous Kop End of the stadium provided most of the atmosphere from the Liverpool fans during the match. I enjoyed the fact that the atmosphere was more reactionary to the events taking place in the match, meaning there isn’t singing during the entire game which is a change to the ultras scene which has taken over most of Europe. My seat was situated fairly close to the travelling Bologna fans who added to the atmosphere by their continuous singing in an attempt to help their team who were underdogs on the night

 

Quality Of Match- 3.5/5

Liverpool were going into this match clear favourites due to their impressive start to the season and Bologna losing their manager to Juventus and key players Calafiori to Arsenal and Zirkzee to Manchester United. The underdogs Bologna  put up a good fight creating a number of half chances, However in the end were unable to cope with Liverpool’s attackick quality which lead to the match ending Liverpool 2-0 Bologna with the goals coming from MacAllister and Salah.

Total score- 14/20
