How new Tottenham stadium capacity compares to Premier League's biggest grounds

Tottenham can finally look forward to settling into their new stadium next month after a series of delays.

The north London club had initially planned to open the stadium in time for the start of the 2018-19 season.

However, Mauricio Pochettino's side were forced to hold off that following delays and continued to call Wembley their temporary home.

The club have announced that the first official fixture at the new White Hart Lane will be against Crystal Palace on April 3, subject to them receiving a formal safety certificate for the two test event matches with increasing levels of attendances: one at 30,000 and another at 45,000.

Once they get the go-ahead, Spurs can welcome their army of fans into the new 62,062-seater arena for the final five home games of the domestic season.

It is understood that when they were seeking planning permission, Tottenham were keen to usurp fierce rivals Arsenal by having the biggest stadium capacity in the capital and will do so by 2,062 seats once it opens.

But how does the new stadium stack up against the rest of their Premier League rivals?
