Nottingham Forest 'working with' Arsenal as they try to secure even more tickets for Carabao Cup clash at the Emirates

Nottingham Forest have asked Arsenal if further tickets could be made available for the Carabao Cup tie later this month, after selling out their allocation.

The Reds were given an extra 2,200 tickets yesterday after selling out their initial 5,100 allocation for the third round tie.

And with all of those seats now snapped up, the club say they are “working with” the Gunners to see if there is a chance of securing any more.

Sabri Lamouchi’s men will be backed by 7,300 travelling fans for the clash with the Premier League giants on Tuesday, September 24 (7.45pm) at the Emirates Stadium.

A statement by Forest said: “Tickets for Nottingham Forest’s Carabao Cup third round tie against Arsenal have sold out.

“Supporters have snapped up the initial 5,100 tickets, as well as the further 2,200 allocation for the game at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday 24th September (kick-off 7.45pm).

“The club are working with Arsenal to see if there is a possibility of further tickets being made available.”

The Reds set up the match in the capital by seeing off arch-rivals Derby County 3-0 last month, having previously toppled Fleetwood Town 1-0 in the first round.
