Here in my city, people usually go to the biggest mall in downtown, and once they are there they walk to the food section of the mall where there are several Televisions all around the place, the mall purposely tunes in the most important matches where some important teams participate in.
It is a nice gathering, in my opinion, people to there and have food all celebrate when there is a goal, among other things.
Obviously, all this also benefits the local food stands as people is more likely to buy something while watching the game and whatever.
I also like to watch some matches at home when some friends decide to visit, but that does not happen very often so when I have the chance I opt to walk to the mall.

On my couch with a big screen together with some friends. Or, just a discord call with us just viewing it together either via discords YT activity (if available) or just us watching the game itself independently. Kind of creates issues since sometimes one guy is behind the other so there's some spoiler ish activity going on but eh, beggars can't be choosers. I've never tried it live before, no friends really who want to try it out as well and I felt like it'd be pretty boring to go by myself. Viewing centers though I am interested in. They're pretty much nonexistent in my country (afaik) but if it does come up I reckon I'd be pretty down to visit it every now and then.
So, I've tried it all and I felt like it's the best when you can watch it live, but being at home with a very small group of close friends is almost as good. Live is great, but you have to get there and pay for the ticket and you most likely won't get a good seat because that's expensive so you'll be watching it on screens anyway, just with people yelling all around you. Being there feels nice but it can be exhausting.
Nowadays I prefer to stay at home, order pizza, drink beer, get to comment things live with my friends. At the stadium or a bar you can barely talk because of the noise.

Let us keep this discussion going, where would you prefer to watch your favorite team?
You have a good point and you can't blame the member of your family, focuses vary and could be altered as you guys grow and engage in life differently. If football is your priority at that time, it may not be theirs at the time, or they are just busy at the time you are watching. Also, aside from your family, I would like you to know and admit the fact that we are not wired the same way, some people could be extroverts, introverts or ambiverts, and even if you are an ambiverted person, mood matters to which side you would switch to at a particular time. All these matters to where you would prefer to watch your match.Let us keep this discussion going, where would you prefer to watch your favorite team?
Like myself who is an ambiverted person, most times, I love my privacy, but at times too, I love to mingle. Depending on the mood at that time and the location the match meets me, I might be watching it privately or at a bar, hotel or other nice places. But for viewing centres, heck No, I do not like the way those places are, the settings are just totally off for someone like me. This is true for at least the ones I've seen so far.

I love to watch my sports bet with my family. Specially with basketball and football. They are inclined with sports and I treat it also like a family time too so it's a double win for me. It's like even though I don't win my bet, I still have my won because I get to have the time with my family. All joy and fun until they know that I bet for specific team. The first question would be "how much?". So I keep it as a secret as much as possible so it won't change the vibe of our bonding. But later the day they would figure out because I will treat them with ordered food every time I win after the game.

I have watched football in all of the different environments - at home with my family, at a bar, and at a football viewing center. It all of these environment the best of it for me is at my home with any member of my family who likes to watch football. I like the convenience and ease in my controlled environment. If I want to listen to the commentary of people, I'll just watch some sports show after the football game or go to Football Twitter for it. I do not appreciate the noise and rowdiness in the other environments where my safety cannot be guaranteed. 
I kinda prefer watching football in my living room. The few times I went to watch at the stadium I was disturbed by the language and more especially the violence. I was kinda afraid for my wellbeing to be honest. Coming from a country where hooliganism is still a thing many people will feel the same here. Stadiums may get full but it's mostly young men that want to make a fuss and like to break things sometimes.
So in order to allow more friendly environments for watching football I just prefer to stay home and enjoy myself even alone sometimes. It's not a problem if the environment is not hostile to be alone imo.

The best is always viewing centers, whenever I’m watching a match with my family there’s never an argument but the same cannot be said for viewing centers - you’ll get to hear heated debates on whose fault was it that the team lost and also what others feel concerning a certain players.
There’s no way that a viewing center can be boring, and aside that it’s also the best way to escape from reality and have a peaceful time with having to think about challenges of life.
For sports events, it will always be fun and enjoyable watching in the live match event with people on the same gang. Not unless the venue is too far away from home, or the weather won't cooperate then it's much better to do it at home. I'm sure most fans will the same.
At home most likely. When you wager a good amount and wanna enjoy, I would be watching live at home and just shout hurra when my team wins. Feels better at home for me.
But in today's technology, you can watch sports just wherever you may be. If you are commuting the train and would like to watch still, you just have to pull out your phone and you can already watch live. The viewing center though is a good place to bet.

Most people prefer to watch football match with other people either in viewing center or with friends. Yes to watch football match alone is boring.
You enjoy the match more where there are friends who you can discuss, argue and analyze the game together. Some people leave their comfort zone where they are suppose to relax and watch matches and then go to game houses even far away to watch football match with friends and like minds. But nothing can be as boring watching football match with someone that barely understand the game, they want you to forfeit it for another thing entirely because they don't have same passion.

Some people would love to watch their favorite team at home with their family, some at a bar while their are others who would love to go to a viewing center. I come from a family where football is appreciated but currently they would prefer to go about their daily activities instead of joining me to watch our favorite team play. We all know how boring it could be watching football alone, their is this joy when you communicate and Analyze the game with people who have good knowledge about football so sometimes instead being bored from watching live football alone at home, I would rather go to a bar or viewing center, the viewing center especially cause it's funny how different fans argue about sports and make fun of the rival teams at the sports viewing center. That is the fun of football asides the players playing on the pitch, the argument, discussion and expectations from various fans in a bar or viewing center makes it more entertaining and interesting.
