Everton supporters have been advised not to travel to Lyon for Thursday’s Europa League Group E match if they do not have a match ticket.
The Club, alongside Merseyside Police, have held meetings with the relevant authorities in Lyon and fans are advised that Place Bellecour in the city centre is the recommended place for Blues to spend the day, with lots of bars and restaurants in the locality.
The Groupama Stadium - where the match will take place from 7pm local time (6pm UK time) is more than 12 miles outside the city centre so the Club, alongside the local authorities, have arranged for shuttle busses to pick up and drop off to and from the city centre and the stadium.
