The enthusiasm among the Arsenal fan community is so high that some opportunists have listed their tickets for resale on various websites, making enormous profits. At present, the only way for supporters to obtain tickets is through the secondary market, where they must pay over a thousand pounds for a single ticket.
Premier League: How expensive is the ticket?
A single pair of lower-tier seats are available for an astounding £53,000 each, which is a significant increase from the standard Centre Upper ticket priced at £131.
Although Arsenal fans are thrilled, fans of other clubs joked that some supporters will be paying a premium to watch their team finish in second place.
One responded: “To watch Man City lift the trophy on the big screen?”
Arsenal fans unhappy with the pricing
Those selling their seats for exorbitant amounts are not being received well by Arsenal fans.
One tweeted: “Everyone who sells a ticket for more than 50% above face value should be fined…”
While a second added: “Its a shame really the working class getting frozen out of the sport that they make soo special.”
A third confidently wrote: “The PL will be decided before that game.”
