AFC Bournemouth's Europa League home debut against Sturm Graz, with the north-west corner open.
AFC Bournemouth take on Sturm Graz at the Vitality Stadium on Thursday 15 October, their first home game of the Europa League campaign. It's a big one for the club — the first time they've hosted a European match at the Vitality, and the first time the stadium has seen continental football since the Cherries returned to this level.
Sturm Graz come in from Austria, and the match kicks off at 20:00. It's a mid-week fixture, so you'll be heading down to the stadium on a Thursday evening rather than a weekend afternoon. The kick-off time means you've got the whole day to get sorted before the game starts.
One detail to keep in mind if you're planning your seat: the north-west corner of the ground is open for this one, so that part of the stadium will be empty. It's worth knowing before you pick your spot, just so you're not surprised when you get in.
