Liverpool have confirmed their ticket allocation of just 19,618 for the Champions League final, which is being held in the 80,000-capacity Stade de France.
Reds fans will be making the journey to Paris on May 28, where they will take on Real Madrid, who beat Manchester City in their semi-final on Wednesday.

But only a limited number of supporters will be able to go, in a game that is famed for giving out seats to UEFA's sponsors and other dignitaries.
Liverpool's allocation equates to less than a quarter of the Stade de France capacity - which is now hosting the showpiece final after it was moved from St Petersburg following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
“The club has received an allocation of 19,618 tickets for this all-ticket fixture,” a statement from the Merseyside club reads.
“In line with UEFA guidelines, a further 382 top-category seats have been allocated to be used as part of the players’ allocation and staff, travelling club staff and VIPs.”
Tickets range from £578.63 for Category 1 to £50.32 for Category 4, although 'restricted view' tickets for all four categories are slightly cheaper than full price.
Any fans wanting to go will also need to fulfil strict criteria – having been to seven previous Champions League games over the last two seasons, or being successful in a ballot draw.
Fans have been advised not to travel to the French capital if they do not have a match ticket.
