It’s surprising what range of pitch size and slope are allowed in professional football.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_pitch

While FIFA recommends a specific size for pro teams, a legal pitch can have widths range from 46 to 91 metres and lengths of 91 to 119 metres. That’s a possible ratio range of 1:1 to 1:2.58.

I could imagine that stadium upgrades have meant that pitches don’t have as much variation as in the past too.
