> Individuals are often banned from football matches. Banning a team from bringing any supporters is rare.

Completely wrong - here is a list of recent stadium bans for various football fans:

Stadium bans arent uncommon, but bans from the UK authorities are essentially unheard of.

That list confirms that during 2025 there was one incidence of UEFA banning a Europa League team from bringing fans. There are nearly 200 matches in one season of Europa League, so it's rare, I think.

There are multiple “no away fans” bans in 2025 on that page. It is common-ish and contradicts your earlier claims of it not happening to anyone but Maccabi.

Look again. There is one away fan ban listed during 2025 for the Europa League, as I said. I did not say it happened to no one but Maccabi.
