To find out which stadiums are having the biggest impact on property prices, Betting.com has analysed the average property price within one mile of stadiums home to Premier League and Championship teams, comparing them to the average property prices in the surrounding city - and it's not good news for the people of Leeds.
Leeds United's stadium, Elland Road, came third with percentage difference of houses between properties within one mile of the stadium and houses in the surrounding city coming in at -58.99%.

Everton’s home ground is the Premier League stadium having the most negative impact on house prices, with average house prices within one mile of the stadium being 96% less than house prices in the surrounding city of Liverpool.
