ARSENAL were the WORST value for money Premier League team in 2016-17, with Tottenham and Manchester United not far behind.
The Emirates Stadium saw 55 goals go in this term, with 39 of those off the boot or head of a Gunners star.
But at £1,513.50 for an average ticket it comes out as the worst value for money stadium in the top flight – at £27.52 per goal.
According to research from Voucherbox, Tottenham and Manchester United aren’t far behind either.
Spurs fans enjoyed a terrific season in battling Chelsea for the Premier League title, but at £1,330 per season ticket, to see just 56 goals is a steep cost.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side averaged £23.75 per goal, with United (38 goals) costing £19.50 per strike, with an average season ticket costing just £741.
At the other end of the scale, relegated Hull were the best value for money team to watch at the KCOM Stadium.
The ground saw 63 goals go in in 2016-17 and with a season ticket costing a mere £432, each strike cost an average of £6.86 - well below the league average.
The average supporter in the Premier League paid £12.06 to witness a goal live in 2016-17.
Amazingly, only four teams cost more than £14, showing just how pricey United, Spurs, Arsenal and even Southampton were last term.
An impressive nine sides cost under £10 per goal, including Leicester and Everton.
Champions League side Liverpool and Chelsea also put on an exciting show this season, averaging just £12.33 and £11.10 per goal respectively.
If money is no option, the best value for money stadiums look a little different, with Chelsea's Stamford Bridge top of the pile with 72 goals last season.
Bournemouth's Vitality Stadium (64), Liverpool's Anfield (63), Hull's KCOM (63) and Swansea's Liberty Stadium (61) complete the top five.
Incredibly, Manchester United's Old Trafford was the dullest stadium to visit, with just 38 goals on display all season long.
