Liverpool supporters will only have to pay £13 to watch next Thursday’s opening Europa League group clash with Bordeaux.

The French outfit’s pricing structure is a world away from the sky-high costs of watching Premier League football with Kopites shelling out £53 for this Saturday’s game at Old Trafford.

Entry to the impressive Nouveau Stade Bordeaux is just a quarter of the price and the Ligue One side are also opening their doors to Liverpool fans who don’t have tickets in the away end.

More than 2,000 stand tickets

The Reds have been given 2,005 stand tickets for the game but to be eligible to purchase those through the club you need to have attended various European away games last season. They are all likely to be snapped up by season ticket holders and fan card holders.

Clubs usually warn opposition fans without tickets not to travel in Europe but Bordeaux have actually set aside other sections of their stadium (blocks 50, 51, 58 and 59) for Liverpool fans wanting to attend who don’t have official away tickets.

These tickets are available to buy online at girondins.com and range from 18 euros (£13) to 72 euros (£52). Liverpool fans getting tickets through Bordeaux must ensure they select one of those four blocks.

There will be a surcharge of 2 euros (£1.45) for tickets bought from the stadium box office on the day of the match.

The 42,115-capacity Nouveau Stade Bordeaux only opened its doors in May. The stadium took two years to build at a cost of £133million. It is due to host five matches at next summer’s European Championships in France.

Willy Sagnol’s Bordeaux side, who finished sixth last season, have taken five points from their opening four matches in Ligue One.
