AFC Bournemouth vs AC Milan Билеты

When and where the match kicks off

AFC Bournemouth welcome AC Milan to the Vitality Stadium on Thursday 22 October 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 local time. The fixture is part of the Europa League league phase, bringing one of the Premier League's most consistent recent risers up against one of Italian and European football's most storied clubs.

The clubs involved

AFC Bournemouth continue to build on their establishment in the Premier League, and hosting a club of AC Milan's history and stature represents one of the biggest occasions the Vitality Stadium has seen in recent seasons. AC Milan arrive with a wealth of European pedigree and a large travelling support expected to make the trip to the south coast of England.

Vitality Stadium

The match is played at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth, which holds 11,307 supporters, making it one of the more compact grounds in English top-flight football. That intimacy tends to create a tight, close-to-the-pitch atmosphere, and a visit from AC Milan is likely to see demand well outstrip the stadium's capacity.
