Manchester United are just four games from the final of the Europa League.
United advanced to the quarter-finals of the competition on Thursday evening with a 1-0 win over FC Rostov at Old Trafford.
Juan Mata’s goal made it 2-1 on aggregate and secured the team’s tie against Anderlecht for a place in the last four.
With Celta Vigo, Genk, Ajax, Schalke, Lyon and Besiktas the other teams remaining, United have to be considered strong favourites to win the tournament.
It’s the only European trophy absent from the club’s collection, and winning the Europa League now appears to be United’s best chance of making the Champions League next season.
The final will take place in the Friends Arena in Stockholm, Sweden on Wednesday May 24. If United make it to final, the club will only receive 10,000 tickets.
The stadium has a 48,000 capacity, and Uefa has allocated just 20,000 tickets for the supporters of both finalists. There’ll be 17,000 tickets on general sale and 11,000 will go to the Uefa partners.
Considering United have 55,000 season ticket holders, the lack of tickets could present a problem to the club’s large fan base.
Last season, Liverpool received just over 10,000 tickets for the Europa League final against Sevilla in Basel’s St Jakob-Park stadium in Switzerland.
