St James’ Park in Newcastle has been crowned the best ground in the Premier League for a pre-match pint.

A new study by AceOdds ranked each stadium by the number of pubs within a fifteen-minute walk for the ultimate fan experience.

They’ve also uncovered which pubs are the best-rated as well as have the cheapest pints within a thirty-minute walk of each stadium.

Newcastle’s St. James’ Park tops the list with a staggering 131 pubs to explore before or after the match.

Coming in second place with 50 pubs within walking distance is the Wolverhampton Wanderers, followed by Burnley with 36.

Meanwhile, Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium has been named the worst ground to grab a pre-match drink. The Citizens have only two pubs within a fifteen-minute walk, meaning they finish bottom of our league table.
