The Premier League is not the only league to feature major derbies. But, England's top flight has a huge range of derbies and the atmosphere at these games is arguably unmatched anywhere on the planet.
There are a wide range of Premier League derbies. The local ones dominate. Arsenal vs Tottenham, Liverpool vs Everton and Manchester United vs Manchester City are all amongst the most fascinating derby matches anywhere in the world.
There are also some derby matches that encompass a bigger geographical area, like the North West derby between Manchester United and Liverpool. As well as other local derbies, including Newcastle vs Sunderland, which only returned to the top flight last season.
The 2026/2027 season will not feature a south-coast derby with both Southampton and Portsmouth facing off in the Championship or a west Midlands derby with the likes of Wolves and Birmingham City also outside the Premier League.
Premier League derbies are amongst the most sought after tickets in any Premier League season. This blog attempts to discover the price differences between the derbies, and which provide the best value.
Premier League Derbies 2026/27: Key Takeaways
- The Tyne-Wear Derby is the cheapest Premier League derby by starting price, both for a single ticket (£99) and on average across both games (£167), yet it still has the highest average resale price of any derby at £1,068.
- The North London Derby has the biggest starting price swing of any derby, from £153 for Tottenham's home game to £508 for Arsenal's return fixture at the Emirates, a £355 gap.

North London Derby: Arsenal vs Tottenham Ticket Prices
Arsenal go into the North London Derby as reigning Premier League champions, but Tottenham have never lacked belief in this fixture. Both games in 2026/27 rank among the priciest derby tickets of the season.
Tottenham's home game on 5 December 2026 starts from £153. Arsenal's return fixture at the Emirates on 1 May 2027 is far pricier, starting from £508, more than three times as much for the cheapest available seat.
That £355 gap between the two games' starting prices is the widest of any Premier League derby this season. Plenty of Gunners fans believe they can win the Premier League again, putting a premium on their match in May.

Manchester Derby: Manchester City vs Manchester United Ticket Prices
The Manchester Derby no longer features the likes of Sir Alex Ferguson and Pep Guardiola, but it remains box office. Manchester United's home game at Old Trafford in September will arguably set the tone for the coming campaign.
Starting from £242, that fixture also produced the single most expensive derby ticket of the entire season, a resale listing as high as £87,000. Manchester City's return fixture at the Etihad in March is more accessible, starting from £184.
Even so, the Manchester Derby's £213 average starting price across both games is still cheaper than three of the other four derbies, only the Tyne-Wear Derby undercuts it.

Merseyside Derby: Liverpool vs Everton Ticket Prices
Few rivalries in English football run as deep as Liverpool and Everton's, even with Everton now playing home games at the new Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Everton's home game in November 2026 starts from £261, only £2 cheaper than Liverpool's return fixture at Anfield in January 2027, which starts from £263.
Both starting prices sit below the North West and North London derbies, making Merseyside a mid-priced way to see a genuine Premier League rivalry live.

North West Derby: Manchester United vs Liverpool Ticket Prices
Manchester United vs Liverpool is arguably the fixture with the richest history in English football, even if both sides are expected to be just challengers in the coming campaign.
Manchester United's home game in January 2027 starts from £298, while Liverpool's home game in November 2026 is pricier still, starting from £355.
At an average starting price of £327, the North West Derby is the second most expensive of the five derbies to get into, behind only the North London Derby.

Tyne-Wear Derby: Newcastle vs Sunderland Ticket Prices
Sunderland's return to the Premier League has revived one of England's fiercest regional rivalries, and ticket demand reflects that intensity.
Newcastle's home game in December 2026 starts from £234. Sunderland's home game at the Stadium of Light in May 2027 is the cheapest single ticket of any Premier League derby this season, just £99, though resale prices for that game still average £1,323 once the cheapest seats are gone.
With only 3,918 tickets available on SeatPick across both games combined, the Tyne-Wear Derby has the smallest ticket supply of any Premier League derby.

Premier League Derbies 2026/27: Ticket Availability Compared
Starting price only tells you the cheapest way in. Ticket availability on SeatPick explains why some derbies feel harder to get into than others, even when the starting price looks similar.
These figures reflect tickets currently listed for sale on SeatPick, via reliable second-hand sellers, not historical sales volumes.
| Derby | Tickets Available on SeatPick (Both Games) |
|---|---|
| North London Derby | 37,407 |
| Manchester Derby | 36,658 |
| North West Derby | 32,022 |
| Merseyside Derby | 18,522 |
| Tyne-Wear Derby | 3,918 |
The gap is stark. The North London Derby has almost ten times as many tickets available as the Tyne-Wear Derby, which helps explain why Newcastle vs Sunderland carries such a high average resale price despite that record-low £99 starting ticket.
