Liverpool and Chelsea have been handed an allocation of just 5,257 tickets each for their upcoming UEFA Super Cup clash in Istanbul.

As a result of their victories in the Champions League and Europa League finals, the two Premier League rivals will face off in a one-off fixture in the Turkish capital on August 14.

The game is set to be held at Vodafone Park, home to Super Lig giants Besiktas since 2016.

But, while the stadium will boast a capacity just shy of 38,000, both teams' combined ticket allocation makes up a fraction over a quarter of that figure.

Uefa yesterday declared that 78 per cent of tickets for the game would be made available to "supporters of the two teams and the general public".

However, it appears that the majority of those will be reserved for sale to neutral fans through Uefa channels.

Liverpool and Chelsea were left frustrated by ticketing issues surrounding their respective appearances in UEFA's showpiece fixtures at the end of the 2018-19 campaign.

The Reds were allotted just 16,600 seats of the 67,000-seat Estadio Metropolitano in Madrid for their Champions League final win over Tottenham.

Chelsea, meanwhile, were given 5,800 tickets ahead of another all-English clash with Arsenal in Baku - though the complexities of travelling to the Azeri capital significantly decreased demand.

Liverpool's preparations for the Super Cup were handed a boost when it was revealed that they will start the Premier League season at home to Norwich on Friday, August 9.

Chelsea will have just two days to ready themselves for the game in Istanbul after a trip to Manchester United on Sunday, August 11.
