Europa Cup excitement growing

Excitement is mounting at Latham Park with volunteers putting the final touches to preparations for tonight's Europa League match against Maltese side, Valletta FC.

Ticket sales have been restricted to 1372, which is the number of seats at the ground – and that means there will be no standing tonight

The main entrances for ticket holders will be the two gates alongside the allotment gardens, although the main gate and turnstyles will also be used for spectator entry. Signs will be displayed from Hafren School to follow the footpath in front of the Police Station to the two entrance gates.

Only 48 Valletta supporters are expected and they will be allocated seating in the TV Gantry stand.

Gates will be open at 5.30pm with kick-off at 7.15pm

A sell-out crowd is expected with minimal tickets remaining available at lunchtime today.
