Going to the Coliseum? Read the club's guide first
Getafe is outside Madrid, so the trip out takes time. Brighton & Hove Albion has published a guide for supporters travelling to this match. Among other things, the club advises taking the train to El Bercial if you use public transport, says the turnstiles open 90 minutes before kick-off and that no alcohol is sold inside the stadium, and warns that away supporters will be held back for around 20 to 30 minutes after the final whistle.
Follow the club's advice and its updates on the day. The guide may be updated the evening before the match.

No ticket? Watch it live in Sol
On Thursdays O'Connell St opens at 18:00, three hours before kick-off. That leaves time for a pint and something to eat in the centre of Madrid, then the match live on the big screen from 21:00.
Irish pub atmosphere a couple of minutes from Puerta del Sol: beer on tap, food from the kitchen and the football on the big screen. Albion supporters and Getafe supporters, all welcome. There are no reservations: it's first come, first served, so on a European night it pays to arrive early.
After the match: back to the centre
If you're at the Coliseum, allow for the hold-back and the journey back from Getafe. O'Connell St is open until 03:00 on Thursday night, so there's no rush to get back to Sol.
