Aston Villa fans will be heading to Poland for the opening game against Legia Warsaw with a 5.45 pm kick-off. The game will take place at the Stadion Wojska Polskiego which has a capacity of 31,800 so Villa should receive an allocation of around 1,500.

A trip to the Netherlands follows as we take on AZ Alkmaar on October 26th with a 5.45 pm kick-off. The AFAS Stadion has a capacity of 19,500 so Villa are likely to receive a little under 1,000 tickets.
The return trip back to Villa Park will follow as De Kaasboeren visits Birmingham on November 9th.
Legia Warsaw will be the final game at Villa Park on November 30th with another 8.00 pm kick-off.
