FC Barcelona will host Cádiz on Tuesday (19th) at nightfall. The club is offering a 60% discount on tickets to residents of Catalonia in an effort to inspire their fans to take all three points at home.
Looking back to the last eight round of the UEFA Cup, Barcelona originally planned to allocate only 5,000 tickets to the visiting Eintracht Frankfurt fans, however, many Barcelona members changed their tickets, causing the number of Eintracht Frankfurt fans to surge to 35,000, which exceeded the expected number of tickets and greatly affected the atmosphere of Barcelona's home stadium, which ultimately led to the loss of the team and the tragic elimination.
Barcelona is very cautious about the upcoming match because of their "ghost" encounter. In order to ensure the atmosphere at home, the club has gone to great lengths to reduce prices in the hope of deterring rivals Cádiz.
Learning from the lessons of the last match, FC Barcelona announced a new rule that prohibits the resale of tickets for international matches to prevent a similarly embarrassing situation from happening again.
