It looks to me like the CL creates more interest than Serie A. |
I saw first hand, while living in Milan, this phenomenon. The same 50,000 or so Milan fans are there for both Serie A and CL matches. But since San Siro is one of the largest stadiums in Europe and seats over 80,000, it is usually the best chance for visiting fans to get to see their team in action. Whenever there was a CL match, there would always be tens of thousands of opponent's fans showing up for the matches.
