That was announced by the club on Monday.

Due to the Saxon Corona Protection Ordinance , there is no change in the already approved hygiene concept for the game. Our home game against Bayern Munich can continue to be held before up to 34,000 spectators, said the club with a view to the return of his former coach Julian Nagelsmann as well as the former RB player Dayot Upamecano and Marcel Sabitzer to their former workplace.

Leipzig, where the incidence value has risen on Monday via the 35-border to 36.5, relies on the regulatory procedure in the event of an exceedance: A value relevant to a threshold value is exceeded when the seven day incidence is exceeded five consecutive days above the threshold. The tightening measures apply from the next day. Additional restrictions in the city come into force at the earliest on Sunday a day after the guest match of Bavaria.

The runner-up master had received a permit for his revised hygiene concept at the beginning of the month from the local health department. Leipzig wants to leave all 31,000 season ticket owners in his arena and distribute the remaining 3000 tickets to fans from Munich, VIP guests and club partners. We look forward to the next step back to the normality and a large football festival with over 30,000 fans in our stadium, wrote RB in the announcement of the permission to expand the audience.
