Sparta Prague away section: Key information for Bournemouth fans

Following their stunning victory over AC Milan, Bournemouth have a 100% win record in the Europa League and are well on course to qualify for the knockout stages as one of the best eight teams.

Next up for the Cherries is a trip to Czechia to take on Sparta Prague on Thursday, 5 November. The match is one that most match-going Bournemouth fans have been looking forward to ever since the league phase draw was made.

If you are travelling to Prague for the match, here is everything you need to know about the Sparta Prague away section and the city of Prague.

Where is the Sparta Prague away section and what is it like?

The away section at the epet ARENA is located in section F of the Tribuna Vlasty Buriana. This stand is located at the north end of the stadium behind one of the goals. Section F is on the far right of the stand, in line with the corner flag.

The view from the away end is okay, as the stand is single-tiered, meaning you are close to the action. However, the away end is typically bordered by plexiglass and nets on all sides, which can distort the view, even if it does protect fans from missiles.

How many Bournemouth fans are going to Prague?

Bournemouth have been allocated 1,004 tickets for the match against Sparta Prague, the maximum they could have got for a European away match at the epet Arena. All of these tickets sold out quickly, but it isn't out of the question that more Bournemouth fans travel without tickets, given Prague's popularity as a European away day.

Ticketless fans are usually advised to watch the match at the Dubliner Irish Pub in Prague's Old Town. This British-friendly pub has capacity for around 300 supporters.

Well done to all those who managed to secure a ticket for the Prague v Bournemouth game. Commiserations to all those that missed out. There are third party options out there. Due diligence and sitting on hands required. https://t.co/vWJrcDTmKa
