About Stamford Bridge, Chelsea's home ground

Stamford Bridge was opened in 1877 and was initially used by the London Athletic Club until 1905, when Chelsea Football Club were founded.

It most recently underwent renovation in the 1990s to turn it into a modern, all-seater stadium and is also the location of a luxury hotel.
Four stands make up Stamford Bridge, with the East Stand and West Stands along the sides of the pitch and the Matthew Harding Stand and Shed End behind either goal.

As well as football, Stamford Bridge has hosted cricket, rugby union, rugby league, Major League Baseball, speedway, American football, and greyhound racing.

Stamford Bridge's capacity: 41,837
