PSG cuts Roma's away section to 1,500 fans for November 25
French authorities class the Champions League clash as very high risk over fears of trouble between PSG ultras close to Naples and Roma supporters.
Paris Saint-Germain will host AS Roma on 25 November in the Champions League with the away section sharply reduced. On orders from French authorities, including the Paris Police Prefecture, capacity for Roma supporters has been cut to 1,500 fans, compared with the usual 2,000 to 2,300. According to RMC Sport, French security services have classed the match as very high risk.
The concern centres on the close links between some PSG ultras and Naples supporters, which could stoke tension with Roma's ultras. Paris lead the league phase unbeaten after four matchdays, but the bigger question now is how UEFA will react, since it requires 5% of the stadium to be reserved for visiting fans.
