Maccabi Tel Aviv announces that they decline tickets and refer to security reasons, according to a statement on the Israeli club's website.

British police have previously recommended that Aston Villa prevent away supporters from coming to Villa Park in Birmingham on November 6.

A recommendation that has created debate in the United Kingdom and been criticized by Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

”We do not tolerate antisemitism on our streets”, Starmer wrote on X.
