Viktoria Plzen tickets: Buying guide

Home tickets

Due to Viktoria Plzen's stadium, the Doosan Arena, only having a capacity of 11,700, tickets for this match were snapped up weeks ago by eager Viktoria supporters. Season ticket holders were given priority before other fans were then given the opportunity to secure their seats for the match.

The club are no longer advertising tickets on their official website which suggests any returns will go to waste. The club set up measures to prevent Manchester United fans in the UK from purchasing tickets in the home sections of the stadium.

Away tickets

Due to the small size of the stadium, Man Utd were never going to receive many tickets for the match against Viktoria Plzen. In the end, they were given 643 tickets for the match, all priced at £33.50.

Man Utd fans usually travel well in Europe so it's no surprise that these tickets were snapped up very quickly from hardcore supporters. The sales criteria meant that only fans who had been to at least eight European away matches during the last three seasons were successful in their ticket applications.

The Viktoria Plzen away section is located in the southeast corner of the stadium with visiting supporters entering through blocks U12 and U13. Expect many classic Man Utd chants to be belted out from these sections throughout the 90 minutes.

Viktoria Plzen tickets: Alternative options

For Viktoria Plzen fans, this is a rare opportunity to see their side face one of the world's biggest football clubs while for Man Utd fans, this is an equally rare opportunity to watch their team in a new stadium. The appeal is there for both sets of fans which is why the demand for tickets is so high.

As a result, some fans are turning to third-party resale websites to purchase Viktoria Plzen vs Man Utd tickets. While this is one way of guaranteeing yourself a ticket for the match, there are risks involved.

Firstly, you aren't offered the same guarantees as you are when you purchase tickets directly through the clubs involved and secondly, you are forced to pay over the odds.

To help, we recently reviewed two of the biggest ticket resale websites on the market.
