English Premier League 2009-10 Final Table, Season Stats, and Average Attendance

The English Premier League had another very successful season as Chelsea ended up as champions. Three teams (Hull City, Burnley, and Portsmouth) were relegated while Tottenham Hotspur finished in the top four to earn a Champions League spot.

Didier Drogba won the scoring title with 29 goals while Petr Cech led goalkeepers with 17 clean sheets. Manchester United once again led the EPL in attendance with over 70,000 per each home match.

Attendance for the lead was slightly down but part of that can be attributed to having Newcastle relegated (who averaged over 40,000) and new clubs who only have stadium capacities around 20,000.

Below is the final table for the 2009-10 season along with the top scorers, and average attendance (for home matches).
