55 grounds

Couple of quiz questions on BBC's live text yesterday got my brain whirring.

Firstly, 55 grounds have hosted Premier League games since 1992 - can you name them? I'm stuck on 48 and refusing to turn to Google.

Secondly, ten teams have hosted Premier League games at two different stadiums. Can you name them?

Here are my 48, which were surprisingly easy to remember. Now I've hit a mental block. Can't remember the last 7 for the life for me.

1. Old Trafford (United)
2. Anfield (Liverpool)
3. Highbury (Arsenal)
4. Emirates (Arsenal)
5. White Hart Lane (Spurs)
6. Riverside (Boro)
7. Turf Moor (Burnley)
8. St James' Park (Newcastle)
9. Stamford Bridge (Chelsea)
10. The Dell (Soton)
11. St Mary's Stadium (Soton)
12. Goodison Park (Everton)
13. KC Stadium (Hull)
14. Liberty Stadium (Swansea)
15. Cardiff City Stadium (Cardiff)
16. Upton Park (West Ham)
17. London Stadium (West Ham)
18. Fratton Park (Pompey)
19. Craven Cottage (Fulham)
20. Etihad (Man City)
21. Maine Road (City)
22. Bloomfield Road (Blackpool)
23. Loftus Road (QPR)
24. Villa Park (Villa)
25. St Andrews (Brum)
26. The City Ground (Notts Forest)
27. King Power Stadium (Lesta)
28. Filbert Street (Lesta)
29. Valley Parade (Bradford)
30. The Valley (Charlton)
31. Oakwell (Barnsley)
32. Dean Court (Bournemouth)
33. Portman Road (Ipswich)
34. Britannia (Stoke)
35. Hillsborough (Sheff W)
36. Carrow Road (Norwich)
37. JJB/DW Stadium (Wigan)
38. Ewood Park (Blackburn)
39. Reebok Stadium (Bolton)
40. Elland Road (Leeds)
41. Highfield Road (Coventry)
42. Selhurst Park (Palace)
43. Bramall Lane (Sheff U)
44. Vicarage Road (Watford)
45. Hawthorns (WBA)
46. Molineux (Wolves)
47. Pride Park (Derby)
48. Stadium of Light (Sunderland)

As for the second conundrum, I've got Arsenal, West Ham, Leicester, Man City and Southampton down. Anymore for anymore?

If we put our heads - and our intimate knowledge of football grounds - together, I think we can do this! COYS.

Swindon - County Ground (I think). Still hold the distinction of being the only club to concede 100 league goals in a PL season I believe.

Standard. We were the specialists in losing heavily to teams we should beat back then.... Then we decided to reminisce when we played Newcastle last season
