PSG–Slovan Bratislava flagged over Slovak ultra fears
Authorities rated the match 2/5 after 350 Slovak ultras were reported, including 50 classified as high-risk.
PSG–Slovan Bratislava is set to be under a security spotlight. According to L'Équipe, the Champions League match at the Parc des Princes on Wednesday at 21:00, for the first round of the league phase, was rated 2 out of 5 by France’s anti-hooligan authority (DNLH).
Police risk level set
The decision is linked to the expected away support. As L'Équipe reports, around 700 Slovak fans are expected in total, 350 of them ultras, including 50 considered high-risk.
Why authorities are concerned
The same source adds that these supporters would not be managed/escorted by their club and would travel independently. That is seen as a factor that could increase the chances of disruption around the stadium, with the DNLH warning about a “degraded context” capable of triggering deviant behavior.
Bottom line: the game’s attention will be split between the action on the pitch and the crowd risk. A 2/5 rating signals a cautious approach, even if it stops short of the highest alert level. The next hours should clarify how the situation is handled.
