Tigers fans look set to outnumber their travelling counterparts from both West Ham and Spurs by 2 to 1 during next week's Barclays Asia Trophy.

The Club has sold 200 tickets to UK based supporters, double the combined number of tickets taken up by Spurs and West Ham who will also travel to Beijing for the prestigious pre-season tournament.

And City's support in the Far East looks likely to increase with a number of ex-pats anticipated to have made their own ticket arrangements.
