home fans

Hometown team's cheerers

Home fans are the supporters of a team playing in its own venue, as opposed to visiting fans who travel to watch the opposing team.

The home crowd typically outnumbers visitors and creates the atmosphere: The home fans went wild when the referee's call was overturned.

Home-field advantage derives partly from this partisan support.
