It’s said that there are a couple of major factors that have influenced the slow sales. SempreMilan reports that there is a real lack of enthusiasm for the season, stemming from the appointment of Fonseca to the start of the season. Milan were held to a 2-2 draw against Torino in their first Serie A game before losing at Parma and drawing at Lazio. They have scored five goals in those matches, albeit conceding another six.
Prices for the game against Liverpool are also much higher. The remaining tickets for the match – not including hospitality seats – range from €349 (£294) to €59 (£49). In comparison, Liverpool’s most expensive regular adult seat in the Champions League this season is £61.
The high price of tickets, along with the lack of excitement caused by the disappointing start in Serie A, have contributed to the choice for fans to avoid attending against Liverpool. Yes, there are a number of fans that wait until the last minute to decide whether to go, but it’s not looking good right now.
