Servette sells its tickets for the Europa League as a package. Like YB in the Champions League. While the Berne tickets did not even go on sale yet because all tickets could already be sold among the members, the situation at Servette is different.

18,500 tickets have been sold

First of all the positive: yesterday 18,500 tickets were sold for the match against Slavia Prague. The vast majority are packages, because individual tickets have only recently become available.

But there are major fears that most fans bought the three tickets solely to see Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma with world champion Paolo Dybala and Romelu Lukaku. In any case, a striking number of tickets for the matches against Slavia and the Moldovans from Tiraspol have appeared on the relevant portals.

Servette’s great memory of Slavia

Only, for the spoiled people of Geneva, Slavia doesn’t seem big enough to really attract fans. The Czechs are number 39 in the UEFA rankings. Even ahead of Rennes, Olympiacos Piraeus, Marseille, Lille – and YB.

In addition, Servette shares an exciting story with Slavia, which only the Grenats have good memories of. In 2001, they beat Prague 1-0 at home in the UEFA Cup, but qualified for the second round with a 1-1 draw. Because Zaragoza and Hertha Berlin were subsequently eliminated, Lucien Favre’s team advanced to the eighth finals, where Valencia was a shoe size too big.

Servette fans spoke of “tourists”

Even against Glasgow Rangers, when the Champions League was still on the line, the ‘real’ Servette fans had labeled the majority of the 26,000 people in the stadium as ‘tourists’. And now there are fears that only a minority of the 18,500 will be in the stadium because it will not be possible to sell the unpopular tickets for the matches against Slavia and Tiraspol.

“That could happen,” says press director Loïc Lüscher, “but it would have no financial consequences.” The tickets have been sold. “But I still assume that the majority of ticket holders will find their way to the stadium and that the atmosphere will be appropriate.”
