Fans may still be able to purchase tickets through resale sites, but naturally, this means that they will come at a vastly inflated cost.

LiveFootballTickets, who have a 4.5 star rating via Trustpilot, are selling tickets starting at £1,899.

It is also advised that supporters exercise caution whenever buying through resale sites, and research sellers thoroughly before making a purchase.

Both clubs were given 19,618 tickets for the final, but Liverpool have warned against fake tickets being sold to supporters.

These “blags” are being sold for as little as £50, and bear a striking resemblance to the real thing.

A club statement on Tuesday read: “There has unfortunately been an increase in the number of fans being defrauded, online in particular, by fake match ticket offers,’ Liverpool said in a statement.

“If any supporter is offered a ticket online, they should report it to LFC and to Action Fraud.

“Liverpool FC will not stand idly by and watch people try to sell tickets they have been fortunate enough to get access to via the ballot.
