The two London clubs followed in the footsteps of Liverpool and Tottenham by reaching a major European final, with Arsenal overcoming Valencia 7-3 on aggregate and Chelsea progressing on penalties against Eintracht Frankfurt, after a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge. As such, the two sides will now meet in Baku later this month in the final of the Europa League, with silverware and a place in next season's Champions League on offer. Chelsea have already secured a place in the Champions League next season via the Premier League, but a win for Arsenal could make it five English representatives in the competition next season. But how can fans get hold of tickets for the clash? Here’s everything you need to know. (Image: (VALERY HACHE/AFP/Getty Images)) How to get tickets Each side which makes the final will reportedly receive a mere 7,000 tickets each, which is sure to spark further debate around the amount of tickets that UEFA’s corporate partners receive - particularly as the venue in Baku holds over 64,000. Over half of that total, which UEFA states is 37,500, will be given to fans and the remaining 23,500 tickets have been sold online by UEFA via a ballot, with successful applicants already being informed of their tickets. The remaining 26,500 tickets being allocated to the local organising committee, national associations, commercial partners and broadcasters, and to serve the corporate hospitality. Some tickets will be available on resale sites but punters will have to pay well over the odds to secure their seat and there is no guarantee that the tickets are genuine, however. At the time of writing, tickets on StubHub are available from £93, while HotFootballTickets as seats available from £200 - but these figures are likely to rise further.

'We want to stress to all supporters before they commit to registering their interest for this match, that there will be significant travel difficulties and cost implications. 'There are very limited travel options to Baku, with a small number of available seats on scheduled flights from western Europe to Azerbaijan. We also estimate that return travel to Baku could cost supporters in excess of £1,000 per person. 'We are working with Thomas Cook Sport to offer supporter travel to the match. Capacity is likely to be limited due to aircraft availability with it being half term week and just after the bank holiday. Thomas Cook Sport are looking to offer a limited number of day trip places to supporters who have purchased an official match ticket (subject to availability).'
