First time traveling to Europe and i'm going to a soccer game. Flying into Amsterdam, and at this point my choices are Ajax, PSV, Lille, Frankfurt or possibly one of the Belgian teams advancing in the Europa league, which we'll find out this week and very unlikely. Might be difficult to get to Ajax or Alkmaar or Frankfurt in the round of 16 game assuming they make it unless its a late game.
I do not want to go to a lower tier game. I wish i was going a day earlier and could go to Dortmund, but i'm not getting there until sunday march 15th.
The most ideal game travel wise for me to go to would be Sparta Rotterdam vs Feyenoord, or Lille vs AS Monaco, but i really don't care to go to either of those. If i go to Ajax, which is late at night but the game i really want to go to, then i have to take the train early in the morning to get to where i'm going to for work in Belgium. It would suck sleep wise, but i really don't care about how tired i might be.


Can i trust buying from Viagogo or Stubhub? the team sites say do not buy from there, but i've seen plenty of reviews that said they bought on there and had no problems.
ALso, both, Viagogo and Stubhub show PSV playing on 3/15, but PSV's website and a few other sites show the game on 3/14. Makes me not want to trust buying tickets from Viagogo/Stubhub.

Any suggestions on buying tickets, things to expect attending games?

SCH will be the one you need to come and answer.

He always suggests buying though the club though.

like McBro said buying from the club is always the best route

viagogo and stub hub are basically the only secondary market sites you can trust

but when buying off them there might be some extra shite bc you could be using someones season ticket.

Clubs don't issues tickets for every game for their ST holders of Members. Instead you get a card. So you might have to pick up that card and return it later.

I've been to matches at Lyon, Marseille, and Strasbourg, FC Dallas and Houston Dynamo and the best game experience I've had was at a tiny club called Hammarby outside of Stockholm.

I’ve had some success contacting the club directly and explaining that I’m coming from the US and am looking for tickets. Usually you can find an email address on the club website.
