Russian supporters are staying away from CSKA Moscow’s Europa League quarter-final at Arsenal, as reported by Charlie Wyett in The Sun.
The club have been allocated just 500 tickets for the game at the Emirates.
But CSKA report a considerable number of those with tickets have decided not to leave Moscow in the last 24 hours.
The reason is the increase in political tensions between Russia and the United Kingdom.
Arsenal have been given an allocation of just 1,000 for the return leg next Thursday, but many Gooners have also decided against travelling.
