The Government is “exploring what additional resources and support are required so all fans can attend” Aston Villa’s match against Maccabi Tel Aviv in Birmingham in November, a spokesman said.
Pressure has been mounting to overturn the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters attending the Europa League match.
The Government is working to make sure the match can go ahead with all fans allowed to attend, a spokesman said.
He said: “No one should be stopped from watching a football game simply because of who they are.
“The Government is working with policing and other partners to do everything in our power to ensure this game can safely go ahead, with all fans present.
“We are exploring what additional resources and support are required so all fans can attend.”
The Government is expecting West Midlands Police to set out early next week what additional resources they would need to police the game safely with both sets of fans present.
The Safety Advisory Group is expected to raise the issue at a meeting early next week.
The decision by authorities in Birmingham to ban fans of the Israeli side was made public on Thursday night.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood posted on X: “Antisemitism is a stain on our society that shames us all.
“Every football fan, whoever they are, should be able to watch their team in safety. This Government is doing everything in our power to ensure all fans can safely attend the game.”
