Arsenal's attendances were slightly down but they still played five games in front of more than 35,000 fans
Average attendances in the Women's Super League dropped by 10% last season compared with the previous campaign.
According to Deloitte's Sports Business Group, which highlighted the drop in a report released on Monday, "this has been put down to a lack of international football drawing attention to the domestic game".
BBC research found the 12 WSL clubs in total averaged 7,366 in 2023-24, compared with 6,662 in 2024-25 - an average decrease of 704.
So which clubs have been affected the most, which clubs are bucking the trend and what else might be behind the numbers? BBC Sport takes a closer look.
