Trying to get hold of tickets for major internationals, especially key qualifying games and for major finals, is now even harder than attempting to acquire big club tickets for the Premier League or the UEFA Champions League.
The balance of supply and demand is very skewed when it comes to both the UEFA European Championship and the FIFA World Cup, and that is perhaps partly down to the fact that the finals of each event only come around every four years.
Both UEFA and FIFA run lottery-style ballots for football fans, where millions of applications are made, and the vast majority prove unsuccessful. Even those who are successful in the first ballot may be disappointed given that they have no idea who they will see playing in the game they secured tickets for.
This is because the first trance of tickets is released prior to the draw being made, which is less than ideal.

Austria vs Serbia UEFA Euros Tournament Record
Between 1960 and 2008, Austria failed to make it to the UEFA European Championship finals, with Das Team crashing out of the qualifying campaigns in 12 successive campaigns.
That run only came to an end for Euro 2008 on the basis of Austria not having to qualify as they were co-hosting the event with Switzerland. On home soil, they started by losing to Croatia in their opening game in Vienna before drawing with Poland.
This meant Josef Hickersberger’s side had to defeat Germany in their final game to secure progress to the knockout phase. They failed to do so and went down 1-0, with Chelsea man Michael Ballack scoring the winner.
Austria finally made it to the finals on their own merit in 2016 but finished bottom of their group, despite a thrilling 3-3 draw with eventual winners Portugal.
Euro 2020 saw Austria claim their first-ever finals game win as they began with a 3-1 win over North Macedonia and then defeated Ukraine in their final group game to land a place in the Round of 16.
There they were edged out in extra time by Italy, who would go on to win the competition.
As an independent nation, Serbia have never successfully qualified for the UEFA European Championships. At Euro 2000, as the Former Republic of Yugoslavia, they made it through to the Quarter-Finals, where they were then thumped 6-1 by co-hosts Holland, with Patrick Kluivert scoring a hat-trick and former Arsenal and Barcelona winger Marc Overmars grabbing two.
Austria vs Serbia Head-to-Head
Austria and Serbia have never previously met in a UEFA European Championship clash but have met on four occasions in the qualifying for the FIFA World Cup.
Ahead of the 2010 World Cup, Serbia beat Austria both home and away.
In the qualifying phase of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, former Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic scored twice in a 3-2 win in Belgrade, and in the return fixture it was Austria who triumphed by the same scoreline in Vienna.
