Wednesday 20 January 2027, 9pm in Leipzig, 8pm UK time. The club's ticket page and UEFA's match data give the same 9pm slot, so the fixture is confirmed.
The ground is the Red Bull Arena, which appears as the RB Arena in UEFA competitions, in the Sportforum next to the Arena Leipzig and the Festwiese. A 9pm start means a late finish, so plan the tram back to the centre before you go. UK broadcasters confirm their Champions League selections nearer the date; no channel is listed for this game.

How to get RB Leipzig v Shakhtar tickets
On the club's ticket page, rbleipzig.com/en/matches/tickets, the Prime Seats for this game, the club's premium places sold at full price, are now fully booked. The pre-sale for the other tickets opens on Monday 9 November. Purchases go through tickets.rbleipzig.com or the box offices at the stadium.
Pre-sale first
Home games can pass through exclusive waves before the free sale: regular travelling fans first, then season-ticket holders and Official Fan Club members, then fans with at least four games attended in two years. For Shakhtar, the pre-sale starts on 9 November, and any free sale for everyone would follow it.
Price and premium seats
Leipzig quote a lowest price per game, but the Shakhtar figure was not shown on the club's pages; check it in the shop and compare with resale. For Lens in November, the free sale started at €15. The Prime Seats, the club's premium places, are fully booked, so nothing else is on sale until the pre-sale.
Returns and resale
Holders who cannot go can return a ticket through the official RBL ticket exchange for a refund of face value. The label next to each game is live, so check it again nearer the date. When the club sale is open, it is usually cheaper than resale. Hellotickets sellers set their own prices, sometimes above face value, and the final price is shown before you pay. The RB Leipzig tickets hub lists every home game, including RB Leipzig v Bayern Munich tickets.
Good to know before you go
- Park and rideThere is very little parking near the stadium, so drivers are better off at a park-and-ride site such as Plovdiver Straße or Lausen, then a tram or bus.
- Read your ticket on transportFree MDV travel is promised for Bundesliga tickets; for a Champions League night, check what your Shakhtar ticket says before boarding the tram.
- Get in earlyRB Leipzig's away-fan information gives entry from two hours before kick-off, so from 7pm local time for this game; the stands are smoke-free.
- Use the exchange if plans changeIf you buy from the club and cannot travel, return the ticket through the official RBL ticket exchange for a refund of its face value.
Where to sit at Red Bull Arena Leipzig
The home end is Sektor B, the south stand behind the goal, reserved for home fans and kept as a 10,500-place standing terrace on European nights. For UEFA matches the arena takes 45,228 spectators, 2,261 of them in the away section.
Shakhtar's supporters are housed in blocks 3.2 to 7, which have standing and seated areas, use Print@Home tickets and are cashless. Only the visitors' colours or neutral clothing are allowed there.
On the Hellotickets table, "Category 1", "Category 2" and "Category 3", plus the Category 1 Gold band, describe price levels rather than places. "A Seite", "B Seite", "C Seite" and "D Seite" name the side of the ground, and "B Seite General Admission" listings are unreserved. When a listing gives only a category, ask the seller for the block.
