In a recent EPL Talk survey, we asked readers to rank their favorite soccer leagues that they watch or follow. We listed a choice of 18different leagues from around the world — everything from US domestic leagues such as MLS, NASL and USL to foreign leagues including the Turkish Super League, Premier League, Mexican Primera Division and all of the major leagues from around the world.
More than 300 soccer fans from around the United States, and some from overseas voted.
We asked readers to rank their favorites in order from most favorite/watched to least. None of the answers were mandatory, so we ended up with two data sets. The first, as you’ll see below, is the cumulative number of votes for each league. The second ranking below is based on the average ranking position.
