Wigan Athletic is officially the cheapest English Premier League club to visit on a match day, while Liverpool is the most expensive.
Meanwhile, Kilmarnock and Inverness are the most wallet-friendly clubs in the Scottish Premier League, with the cheapest matchday ticket costing just £15 at both grounds. Celtic fans have to fork out the most at £25, £2 more than at bitter rivals Rangers.
The findings are part of research carried out by the Press Association for MSN Money.
See how they add up
So how do all the clubs stack up? Below is the full list of Scottish and English Premier League clubs in ascending order of cost.
The ticket prices are based on the cheapest adult matchday ticket bought by a person who isn't a member of the club.
Of course, bear in mind that you can't get a ticket to many games at English and Scottish Premier League clubs unless you are a member. And we should also point out that fixtures against prestigious opposition or local rivals are likely to command a much higher price.

Liverpool fans getting a raw deal?
Despite finishing seventh last season and being expected to undergo a period of consolidation under new manager Roy Hodgson, Liverpool are still demanding a hefty £37 for their cheapest tickets - more than double the £15 charged at cheapest club Wigan.
Of the three clubs promoted to the English Premier League, Newcastle is the cheapest at £20, with both West Brom and Blackpool charging £25.
Surprisingly, Fulham works out as the fifth most expensive club in both leagues, with the cheapest ticket to Craven Cottage costing £30.
*Manchester City: The club says it has "no fixed pricing structure", although a ticketing representative told MSN Money that the cheapest ticket for the first home game (Liverpool) was £38.
**Blackburn Rovers: The club says it has a "fluctuating and dynamic matchday pricing policy ... depending on fixture, circumstances etc", so no cheapest ticket price could be obtained.
