Spotify Camp Nou to host Barça's next Champions League home game

FC Barcelona are officially returning to their Camp Nou home for European competition.

The balugrana will play Eintracht Frankfurt on matchday 6 of the Champions League group stage in their newly refurbished Spotify Camp Nou ground on Tuesday, December 9, at 9pm.

This decision comes after the club obtained the first occupancy license for Phase 1B, which allows for an increase in capacity up to 45,000 fans.

This coming weekend, Barça will play their first ever official game at the new Spotify Camp Nou, as they take on Athletic Club on Saturday, November 22, at 4.15pm local time.

UEFA has accepted the Catalan club's request to play the game in their iconic stadium, still under construction, considering that all the necessary requirements are met.

There had previously been doubts over whether the club could move their home stadium during the same phase of the competition, but European football's organizing body has accepted the reasoning behind the club's request. 

In the coming days, Barça will inform fans about ticketing for the match.
