Prince William is set to leave the UK today for France to watch Aston Villa take on Paris Saint Germain in the Champions League quarter-final.
The Prince of Wales will attend the first leg of the crucial European tie on Wednesday evening.
William, a devoted Villa supporter, appeared to confirm his plans following the club's previous Champions League match.
After Villa's 6-1 aggregate victory over Club Brugge in the last round, the prince told journalists "see you in Paris" as he walked to his car.

This trip continues his pattern of supporting the Birmingham-based club at major fixtures.
Earlier this year, the Prince of Wales travelled to Monaco to watch Aston Villa compete in the Champions League.
Last month, William made a special stop at Villa's training ground whilst en route to a royal engagement.
He met with players before their crucial Champions League last-16 second leg match against Belgian side Club Brugge.

The prince's support proved valuable, as Villa went on to secure a convincing victory in that tie.
Following his visit to the training ground, Prince William shared a message of support for Villa on his Instagram account, along with pictures of him with the players.
The royal recently gave an in-depth interview about his support for the club.
In the interview, William heaped praise on current Aston Villa manager Unai Emery.
He specifically highlighted the Spaniard's "intricate tactical tweaks and formations" as key factors in the team's recent success.
His public displays of support have become increasingly frequent as Villa continue their impressive European campaign.
In the interview, William also discussed how he came to support Aston Villa despite having no obvious connection to Birmingham.

The prince revealed he watches matches with his children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, who each have an Aston Villa shirt.
He stated he would prefer his children to choose their own teams rather than following Villa because of him.
Prince George, 11, has already attended a Villa match with his father this season.
Perhaps most surprisingly, William disclosed that he posts anonymously in Aston Villa fan forums and maintains a paid membership to Aston Villa TV.
