Chelsea are the most hated team in the Premier League.
A survey by the Mirror and its sister titles asked fans of each club whether they love, hate or are indifferent to each current top flight side apart from their own.
The view of fans of each Premier League club were given equal weighting in drawing up the results, no matter how many voted, to keep the overall table fair.
Chelsea came out as the most hated team, but only just. Only a fraction of a percent separated the west London club from the next most hated team, Manchester United.
On average, 68.7% of fans said they hated Chelsea compared to 68.1% for United.
Liverpool are the third most hated team (52.8%), while West Ham (47.6%) and Arsenal (46.2%) complete the top five.
The survey also asked which clubs fans loved, with Burnley coming out top.
An average of 35.8% of fans said they loved the Clarets who were followed by Bournemouth (32.9%), Huddersfield (30.2%), Manchester City (28.3%), Newcastle (27.1%) and Fulham (also 27.1%).
