Since the beginning of the league, there have been three clubs with an attendance much higher than the others: Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord. Clubs like Heerenveen, FC Utrecht and FC Groningen also have fairly large fanbases.
The regular season average league attendance was just over 7,000 in 1990, but this figure has risen sharply over the years thanks to the opening of new stadiums and the expansion of existing ones nationwide.

Average attendance for the 2018–19 season was 18,010, with Ajax having the largest (52,987) and Excelsior having the smallest (4,223). Ajax's figures however differ from those provided by the Johan Cruyff Arena since the club counts all tickets sold instead of the number of people going through the turnstiles.

Zanimljiv je podatak “iščeprkala” press-služba prvoligaša s Drave. Naime, došlo se do statističke činjenice koja govori kako je napadač Bijelo-plavih, vodeći strijelac HNL-a Ramon Mierez, u ovom trenutku drugi najuspješniji Argenitinac koji igra u Europi po broju postignutih pogodaka.

Ne treba ni naglašavati, prvi je Leo Messi, koji je u 23 odigrane utakmice prvenstva Španjolske do sada postigao 23 pogotka u 26 utakmica, a Mierez je protivničke mreže zatresao 18 puta u također 26 prvenstvenih utakmica Hrvatske lige.
