Maastricht seeing double - UEFA Champions League GS MD5

Group E

Liverpool FC vs. SSC Napoli

Not quite sure yet how Napoli's very passionate away support will be traveling, but I am almost sure that there will be more flights added on to the sole Blue Panorama B737-300 yet:

BV8272 NAP 0945-1215 LPL B733 I-BPAG (26/11/19)

KRC Genk vs. FC Salzburg

One Enter Air Boeing 737-800 once again does not seem to be enough for the Salzburg Champions League and Youth League teams, so once again they will travel abroad using two planes. No supporter flights for once:

Group F

FC Barcelona vs. Borussia Dortmund

It seems to be the standard these days for Borussia Dortmund to use two planes at least for away trips. One of them is usually their "own" special A320 D-AIZR in the "Mannschaftsairbus" colours, though this appears to have been replaced for once:

A first A350 in Belgrade - Champions League Group Stage MD5

Group A

Real Madrid vs. Paris St-Germain

The media interest is very high, wherever Neymar and his PSG team are traveling. So BEINsports has once again hired planes from Aero4M to cater for this need, this time even two EMB-145 going to Madrid:

Group B

Crvena Zvezda vs. FC Bayern München

Quite possibly a first visitor to Belgrade, Lufthansa is sending an A350-900 with FC Bayern München. This looks rather extraordinary, as for similar trips in the past, the team would have traveled on an A321.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Olympiacos Piraeus

Spurs have a new manager in José Mourinho. He will be put to the test right away, facing a very tricky opposition in Olympiacos, who are traveling as usual, with Aegean Airlines:

A Czech invasion in Barcelona - CL Group Stage MD4

5 November 2019

FC Barcelona vs. Slavia Prague

Barcelona will look to win in better fashion than in the first leg in Prague, where they needed some luck to get two goals behind Prague. The Czech football fans seem to show great interest in this game, traveling down with no less than five chartered aircraft:

Zenit St. Petersburg vs. RB Leipzig

The team from Leipzig has been playing fairly strong so far, keeping up with some much more fancied outfits. The trip to the Krestovsky Stadium in St. Petersburg is never an easy one though. SR these days stands for the German airline Sundair.

SSC Napoli vs. RB Salzburg

Qualified for the Champions League for the first time ever as this club, RBS is on its way to Naples to restore some pride after losing a couple of tight matches against Liverpool and at home against Napoli.
