On Thursday evening, the draw ceremony for the UEFA Champions League group stage took place. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The “Qayrat” club from Almaty, participating in this tournament for the first time, has determined its opponents. Of course, the most notable opponent is Madrid’s “Real” team, with whom “Qayrat” will play at the Central Stadium in Almaty.
“Qayrat”’s home stadium can accommodate 23,804 spectators and is located near the city center, not far from the Baykonur metro station. “Qayrat” will also host the Belgian team “Brugge”, Greece’s “Olympiacos”, and Cyprus’s “Pafos” clubs at their home ground.
During winter nights, temperatures in Almaty can sometimes drop to minus 20 degrees. This may pose challenges for “Qayrat”’s opponents playing away matches.
