Croatia v England BCD 2026

The Three Lions will play Croatia in a Behind Closed Doors match on Tuesday 29 September 2026. 100 ESTC members with the most 'all time caps' will be in attendance as part of The FA's official allocation.

The match will be played behind closed doors following a UEFA sanction against Croatia. However, we have been granted permission to allocate 100 complimentary tickets to active 2026-2028 England Supporters Travel Club members, giving a small number of our supporters the opportunity to attend the fixture.

We received 1,543 registrations in total for the 100 tickets, with the highest all-time caps total among applicants being 355.

The lowest all-time caps total among successful applicants was 314.

There will be no waiting list for this fixture. However, should any tickets become available due to cancellations or successful supporters being unable to attend, we will follow the same process and select the next eligible members based on their all-time caps totals.

Price

Ticket Price and Details

Tickets for this fixture will be complimentary for successful members.

However, successful members will be required to pay a £30 holding deposit when accepting their ticket. This deposit will be refunded should you attend the fixture.

If you are unable to attend, you must inform us as soon as possible so that we can offer the ticket to another eligible member who registered their interest. The £30 deposit will not be refunded where a member does not attend and has not informed us in advance, as this prevents us from reallocating the ticket to another eligible supporter.
