Playing at home can give Premier League clubs an important psychological advantage. Familiar surroundings, travelling routines and the support of thousands of fans can all influence the atmosphere before and during a match. A loud home crowd can lift players after a difficult spell or create pressure when the opposition is trying to build from the back. However, home advantage is never guaranteed. Teams still need organisation, confidence and quality to turn their surroundings into results. For supporters, meanwhile, attending a home fixture is about much more than watching ninety minutes. It is the complete matchday experience, from arriving at the ground to celebrating with fellow fans.
