Match Categories
The club categorises all Premier League matches as either Category A (Cat A) or Category B (Cat B), based on the expected level of demand for tickets, stadium capacities, security arrangements and club rivalries, with Cat A games being those that are either higher profile or higher risk games.
Home and away match categories will be reviewed when the fixtures are announced before the first Premier League ticket sale of the season.*
*Categories may be subject to change throughout the season based on security advice or changes to dates and times ahead of each match.
For games with an exceptional demand, and/or to increase security for our fans, we reserve the right to increase the TAPs threshold for Category A home fixtures to a requirement for 100+ TAPs. These games are detailed in the below table.
