Match introduction

Stamford Bridge will be busy end-to-end for Chelsea vs Pafos, a European night in west London.

Where to Buy Tickets

Check official/UEFA sales first; otherwise choose verified marketplaces with buyer protection. See Champions League overview.

Stadium & Seating

Stamford Bridge provides a close, electric setting for European nights, and this fixture will be no different. Chelsea’s home supporters in the Matthew Harding Stand create the core of the atmosphere, while visiting fans from Pafos are usually placed in the Shed End corner. The Bridge’s compact layout means every seat feels close to the pitch, but the West Stand Upper Tier offers the best panoramic view of the action. With limited allocations for international ties, tickets in the home ends will sell out quickly.

Travel & Matchday Tips

Stamford Bridge is a short walk from Fulham Broadway Station on the District Line. West Brompton and Earls Court stations also provide easy connections from across London. Roads around Fulham Road and North End Road are closed to traffic on matchdays, so public transport is best. After full-time, walking to West Brompton or Earls Court can be quicker than waiting for the tube at Fulham Broadway.
