Man United Champions League return draws weak demand as hospitality prices halve for Sabah clash

Hospitality packages for Manchester United’s Champions League return at Old Trafford have shed more than half their original value, with tickets for the September 10 fixture against Azerbaijani side Sabah FC now starting at £75 — down from £159 at the start of the month.

The price cuts, available through official hospitality provider Seat Unique, span the full range of packages on offer for the club’s first European fixture since December 2023. United secured their return to the competition with a third-place Premier League finish last season, and Michael Carrick’s side open their campaign at home before the end of the international break.

The entry-level Seat Unique Club package, now £75, grants access to Old Trafford’s newest lounge and includes complimentary food and drinks — beer, prosecco and soft drinks — alongside a matchday programme and a Megastore voucher. Guests are seated in padded ‘VIP Executive’ chairs near the halfway line in block N3405 of the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand.

The Block N1404 with Victoria Warehouse package has fallen from £149 to £99, offering seating in the Sir Alex Stand alongside access to the Victoria Warehouse hospitality area from three hours before kick-off to one hour after the final whistle.

A mid-tier Salford package is priced at £139, reduced from £189, and includes padded halfway-line seating and access to the Salford Lounge with informal street food options. Food and drink at this level must be purchased separately on the day.

At the top of the available range, the Champions Club Lounges package has dropped from £249 to £179, featuring ‘VIP Executive’ padded seats in the middle tier near the halfway line and an all-inclusive three-course dining experience.

United’s own ticket allocation for the match has already been sold exclusively to season ticket holders and club members, making the Seat Unique hospitality route one of the few remaining options for supporters without existing membership.
