Apart from the UEFA Champions League final, you cannot buy tickets for the Champions League directly through UEFA itself.
Instead, they are sold club-by-club among the teams competing in this year's edition. You must visit the individual club’s website for the fixture you want to attend and buy your seat from there.
Capacity is always limited for these Champions League knockout matches, and demand often exceeds available allocation.
Will I be able to buy Champions League tickets through secondary sites?
In addition, fans can purchase seats on the secondary market. StubHub is one of the leading retailers for those seeking to buy tickets through alternative channels.
