UEFA are already making plans for Liverpool fans at the Europa League final on May 22.
And you can hardly blame them.
The Reds head into Thursday’s last-16 Anfield clash against Sparta Prague with a 5-1 lead.
And when you look at Liverpool’s current form, it would be a huge surprise if skipper Virgil van Dijk didn’t end up leading them out in Dublin.
The Aviva Stadium officially holds 51,700 fans.
And when you consider half of Ireland seems to support Liverpool and the proximity of Dublin to the UK, a huge number of fans without tickets will converge on the city.

The stadium could also be used if West Ham make the final as there would be a mass exodus from East London to Dublin.
Accommodation in Dublin is already costing a fortune for the night of the final.
Three-star hotels currently start from £400 a night, with hostels at least £160.
