Some very good, quite unexpected news at the start of the season at OL, the fact that the Groupama Stadium is very well stocked for each match and is even on the basis of a record.
The victory against ASSE in the derby not only made it possible to put a smile on the face of Lyon supporters, but also to move into the European places at the time of the third international break of the year. A hot ranking even if OL have not always fired up their matches. However, compared to the fiasco of the first part of last season, there is much better and the spectators at Groupama Stadium can confirm it. Since the start of the season, lots of people have come to Décines, and each time this has resulted in large crowds. Seeing ASSE return to Ligue 1, AS Monaco and OM made it possible to fill the Lyon stadium copiously, which is off to a record season.
A historic milestone crossed
The specialized site Stade OL HD underlines that, after a third of the matches played at home this season, the Rhone club has never experienced a better average attendance with 52,709 spectators per match so far. We have to go back to the 2018-2019 season to see an average approaching the 50,000 mark, with 49,079 spectators per match. Suffice to say that this remains a very good sign for the John Textor version of OL, with the ticket revenues that go with it. Even if for this to happen it will be necessary for the results to be maintained and for the stakes to still be there, this remains very good news for a stadium which has sometimes struggled to fill up in recent years.
