Arsenal v Chelsea

I would prefer to see Arsenal win it but I think Chelsea will be lifting the cup.

Absolutely ridiculous when you consider the size of the stadium.

That will probably be enough for each club though. Can see very few travelling over midweek to Baku.

Can't imagine anyone not getting tickets, hardly going to be 56000 that aren't Arsenal or Chelsea fans travelling over.

Arsenal fans have charted a plane over, £950 return but its direct, very hard to find a cheap way over.

When NI played out there, a lot of fans travelled via Budapest, which had (still has?) a daily non-stop schedule to Baku. 

Budapest is a great place for a stopover on the way out or back, too, though Baku itself was excellent.

Closer to New Delhi than London. 

(Or Delhi/Londondelhi for Irish fans)

Also important to note people who are thinking of going over to Azerbaijan who have been to Armenia might be refused entry.

I don't think you are refused entry just because you've been to Armenia. You get refused entry if you are Armenian or if you have visited Nagorno-Karabakh, or whatever they're calling it these days. Simply having gone to Yerevan isn't a problem.

It is a difficult spot to get to all the same: the only neighbouring country you can easily travel there from is Georgia. There's only really one airport in Azerbaijan as well, and only two major international airports that are any use in Georgia. Compared to Lyon last year, this is a lot tougher for fans of the competing teams.

However, on the tickets, the reason they have so few for the competing teams is that they have something like 35,000 for the general public in the lottery phase. I know that that still leaves 20,000 for UEFA & sponsors and whoever, but I presume the Champions League final is even worse.
