Como president Mirwan Suwarso and several club directors are relinquishing their match tickets to accommodate elderly fans for the team's Champions League debut. The club hosts RB Leipzig this Thursday at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia, marking their first appearance in the competition in their 119-year history. Capacity at the venue is reduced to approximately 11,000 for the match due to UEFA operational requirements, which limited the availability of tickets following high demand. Executives intended to prioritize supporters born in 1950 or earlier who have followed the club across various divisions. After facing RB Leipzig, the Italian side will compete against teams including Manchester United, Paris St-Germain, and Barcelona in the group stage. This match follows the club's fourth-place finish in Serie A last season under head coach Cesc Fabregas.
