How it's used
Focuses specifically on the location of the match rather than the team itself. While it functions as a noun, it is often used adverbially in sentences like 喺客場打，implying the context of playing away from home. It carries a sense of disadvantage due to the lack of home crowd support.
Examples
Tonight's match is an away game, it's going to be tough.
Are you guys going to play an away game next week?

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 作客, which is a verb phrase meaning to play as the visiting team. Use 客場 when referring to the venue or the game type, and use 作客 when describing the action of playing away.
