Europa League Play-Off Tickets | Live Football Tickets
How the Europa League play-offs work
There are two separate play-off stages in the competition. The first comes at the end of qualifying, in late August: clubs that have come through the earlier qualifying rounds meet over two legs, and the winners take the last places in the league phase while the losers move across to the Conference League.
The second is the knockout phase play-off in February. After the league phase, in which 36 clubs each play eight matches in a single table, the top eight go straight to the last sixteen. The clubs finishing ninth to twenty-fourth enter the play-off round, again over two legs, with the higher-ranked sides seeded and playing the return at home. The eight winners join the top eight in the last sixteen, and everyone else is out.

Seating categories
Category 1 seats are usually located along the sides of the pitch and offer the best all-round view of play. Category 2 and 3 seats sit behind the goals or higher in the stands, and are the more affordable option for supporters who want to be in the ground and part of the atmosphere. Availability per category depends entirely on what sellers list, and European fixtures often use a different layout to domestic matches at the same ground.

Frequently asked questions
Which play-off round is this?
Check the date. Ties played in late August are the final qualifying hurdle before the league phase; ties played in February are the knockout phase play-offs, which lead into the last sixteen.
Which leg is played at home?
In the knockout phase play-offs the seeded club, meaning the one that finished higher in the league phase, hosts the second leg. In the qualifying play-offs the order is set by the draw. The fixture details show which leg you are booking.
Are away tickets available?
Away allocations in European ties are limited and located in a designated section of the ground, with rules that vary by club and by country. Check the listing details for the location of the seats before you book.
How will I receive my tickets?
Delivery method depends on the fixture and the seller, and can be electronic, mobile or collection near the stadium. Your confirmation email sets out the method that applies to your booking, along with the timeline.
