Programmes available
City supporters can guarantee themselves a special memento from Tuesday's Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea with a commemorative programme.
The Imps are producing a 68 page edition which will feature interviews with head coach Michael Skubala, captain Tendayi Darikwa and Imps forward - and Chelsea fan - Freddie Draper.
Sam Habergham - who was part of the City squad who beat Chelsea U21 in the semi-finals of the Checkatrade Trophy in 2018 - will also talk through how he is finding life after football and his role with Imps+.
The programme costs just £5 and will be available around the LNER Stadium footprint on matchday, or you can guarantee yourself a copy by pre-ordering now.
Supporter liaison officers
Our SLO team will be around the stadium before and during the game, look out for them or our 'Here To Help' team - they will all be clearly identified. We have a matchday familiarisation opportunity for any supporters who are new to the stadium - this is free and there is no need to sign up, simply head to the ticket office for 5.30pm.
The below video will help you plan your journey to the game - click here to view our full guide for first-time fans.
Tunnel area wristbands
Supporters wanting to access the tunnel area pre-match can collect wristbands from the club shop on a first come, first served basis.
Audio descriptive commentary
The Imps provide a free audio descriptive commentary service for fans with visual impairments. Headsets and receivers can be collected from the ticket office before the game (from the SLO point 5.30pm-6pm, then from the ticket office desks).
Fans are encouraged to bring their own headphones where possible to minimise the amount of equipment needed to be shared - the receivers have a standard aux output.
Anyone with questions about the service are asked to contact disability liaison officer Heidi Langham on dlo@theredimps.com.
Teamsheet
Official teamsheets are available from the Red Imps Community Trust pod in the Fan Village or from the Club Shop around 7pm. These cost 50p.

Reporting form
We offer an anonymous online form for supporters to report any concerns around safety or inappropriate behaviour and chanting in or around the stadium. Use the QR code which is situated around the stadium or click here.
Stadium facilities
Our unisex accessible toilets can be found in each corner of the LNER Stadium, as well as each bar and hospitality suite. Supporters can find them on the stadium map and signposted with toilet icons in and around the LNER Stadium. These toilets also include baby changing facilities.
Bins and recycling
We would like to make supporters aware of new legislation which requires the football club to separate waste. In order to apply, clearly designated bins will be located throughout the stadium. Please help us keep the LNER Stadium clean and tidy by putting your rubbish in the correct bin. Like every business throughout the country, the Imps are now required by law to comply with new waste regulations, failure to do so will result in the club receiving a fine. Thank you to all supporters in advance for their understanding and cooperation with this matter.
