    6 people

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Suppose A represents the event of going on Saturday,

    B represents the event of going on Sunday,

    According to the question,

    n (A) = 11

    n (B) = 14

    n (A∪B) = 20

    We know that,

    n (A∪B) = n (A) + n (B) - n (A∩B)

    By substituting values,

    20 = 11 + 14 - n (A∩B)

    ⇒ n (A∩B) = 25 - 20 = 5,

    Hence, the number of people who can only go to the game on Saturday = n (A) - n (A∩B) = 11 - 5 = 6.
