  1. The fan debate - safe or 'experimental rabbits'?published at 19:50 British Summer Time 24 September 2020

    The Hungarian government insists it is "safe" for fans to attend today's game, despite opposition saying they will be "experimental rabbits".

    Both Bayern and Sevilla have been allocated 3,000 tickets for the match but far fewer of their fans will attend, with the majority of the 15,500 tickets sold coming from Hungary.

    European football's governing body Uefa say fans will be instructed to keep a distance of 1.5m from each other, wear masks and wash and disinfect their hands wherever possible.

    They also have to undergo body temperature checks at the stadium and anyone over 37.8C will be refused entry.

    Those supporters arriving from abroad will have to present a ticket and proof of a negative Covid-19 test which must have been conducted in the previous three days and they can only stay in the country for up to 72 hours.

    The chief of staff for Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said the match will be "safer than almost any other gathering" with the measures that are in place but others are not convinced.

    "This experiment is unacceptable," said opposition Socialist deputy Ildiko Borbely.

    "They use 14,000 compatriots as experimental rabbits to see how the coronavirus spreads at mass gatherings. We reject exposing Hungary to such danger."

    Bayern Munich's warm-up session at their team hotel has the feel of one of those football adverts for sports brands in the late 90s/early 00s...

  5. Fans return to watch actionpublished at 19:42 British Summer Time 24 September 2020

    Bayern Munich v Sevilla (20:00 BST)

    Uefa has sold 15,500 tickets for tonight's game in Budapest, as part of a trial to get fans back into grounds.

    Match organisers will be broadcasting public announcements on giant screens and TV monitors, reminding fans to put safety first.

    Uefa said last month up to 30% of the 67,000-seater Puskas Arena would be allowed to be used, though fewer tickets have been sold.

    Safety precautions include wearing face masks when social distance cannot be respected, queuing lanes marked out at turnstiles and thermal cameras to measure body temperature at entrances.

  6. Super six for Sevillapublished at 19:38 British Summer Time 24 September 2020

    Bayern Munich v Sevilla (20:00 BST)

    I know, it feels like Sevilla feature in the Super Cup every year - in fact, the Spanish side are only the fifth team to contest the tie at least six times, after Barcelona (9), AC Milan (7), Real Madrid (7) and Liverpool (6).

    However, they've only won the trophy on one of those appearances, against Barcelona in 2006.

    Win tonight and Sevilla will claim an eighth European trophy, a run that began with the 2005-06 Uefa Cup - only Barcelona (7) and Real Madrid (7) have won as many continental titles in that time.

    Say what?!

    Can anyone stop Bayern?

    The German giants are on an incredible 22-match winning run and are 31 games undefeated in all competitions, a spell that has seen them wrap up the Bundesliga title, clinch the German Cup and win the Champions League.

    They then kicked off the new season with an 8-0 thumping of Schalke, just in case anyone thought Hansi Flick’s men might be about to let up...

    Sevilla, who beat Inter Milan in the Europa League final, kicked their domestic campaign off with a 3-2 win against Levante.

    No big surprises for Bayern, though Alphonso Davies is only deemed fit enough to start on the bench.

    New boy Leroy Sane is named in the starting XI, and will come up against another former Manchester City man in Sevilla's Jesus Navas.

    Ivan Rakitic also makes his first start for the Spanish side since returning to the club from Barcelona.
