Niall Carson/PA WireThe FAI expect that no fans will be able to attend the Nations League qualifier against Wales in Dublin on Sunday week, but the association are optimistic that supporters may be allowed in to matches in November as well as Dundalk's games in the group stages of the Europa League. All matches in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League and Europa League, as well as the Nations League, have been played behind closed doors, but now UEFA are willing to admit some fans. "The FAI welcomes today’s announcement by UEFA allowing the return of fans, up to a maximum 30% of capacity, to all international and club games under UEFA’s jurisdiction. It could also allow for Dundalk fans to attend their home games in the group stages of the UEFA Europa League following tonight’s win over KI Klaksvik at the Aviva Stadium." The FAI have also been informed by the Finnish FA that they will allow some spectators in to the stadium in Helsinki for the Nations League game on October 14th.
