The next football matches in Manchester
Manchester breathes football the way other cities breathe traffic, and a football match in Manchester belongs on any supporter's list. The city is home to two giants of the English game: Manchester United at Old Trafford, the self-styled Theatre of Dreams, and Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on the east side of town. Around them sits a city famous for its music, its nightlife and the National Football Museum right in the centre.
The Manchester derby and two famous grounds
The Manchester derby is one of the defining fixtures of English football, a meeting of neighbours whose rivalry stretches back well over a century and colours everything from office banter to family Sundays. Even on an ordinary weekend both grounds deliver: Old Trafford for sheer scale and history, the Etihad for its modern bowl and the buzz along the walkways before kick-off.
Both stadiums are a short tram ride from the centre, so you can make a proper day of it. Compare tickets for a football match in Manchester, then round out the itinerary with our guide to football tickets in England.
FAQ: football tickets in Manchester
How do I buy tickets for a football match in Manchester?
Find the fixture you are after in the calendar on this page, then compare the offers from our partner merchants for that match. The purchase is completed directly on the chosen merchant's site, and tickets usually arrive by email or through a mobile app.
How much does a football ticket cost in Manchester?
It depends on the fixture, the opposition and where you sit. The calendar above shows the lowest price found for each match, a useful starting point for comparing. Here, entry-level seats start from 53€. Most fixtures on the calendar sit around 125€, such as Manchester Utd - Ipswich or Manchester City - Aston Villa. The priciest fixture right now is Manchester Utd - Liverpool on 23 January 2027, with a lowest found price of 321€. Derbies and big European nights sell faster, and at higher prices.
When should I book?
As soon as the date is confirmed. Prices move with demand, and the most anticipated matches, such as North-west derby between Manchester Utd and Liverpool, sell out quickly. Booking early also leaves you more choice of seats.
How do I choose where to sit?
The side stands give the best view of the game; the ends behind the goals put you in the heart of the supporters' sections, often at friendlier prices. Each offer states the category or area of the ground.
Is my ticket guaranteed?
The purchase is completed with the selected merchant, under their guarantees, terms and customer service. We compare established platforms that specialise in tickets for sporting events.
