Uefa Champions League UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE - 2020/21 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS Stadium Krasnodar - Krasnodar Wednesday 28 October 2020 18.55CET (20.55 local time) FC Krasnodar Group E - Matchday 2 Chelsea FC Last updated 29/10/2020 15:34CET UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE OFFICIAL SPONSORS Match background 2 Legend 5 1 FC Krasnodar - Chelsea FC Wednesday 28 October 2020 - 18.55CET (20.55 local time) Match press kit Stadium Krasnodar, Krasnodar Match background Krasnodar's first home game in the UEFA Champions League group stage brings a first meeting with Chelsea, with the sides each having a point on the board. • While Chelsea shared a goalless draw with last season's UEFA Europa League winners Sevilla at Stamford Bridge in their Group E opener, Krasnodar drew 1-1 at fellow group stage debutants Rennes, Cristian Ramírez scoring their first goal in the UEFA Champions League proper. Form guide Krasnodar • Krasnodar are the seventh Russian club to compete in the UEFA Champions League group stage, and the first newcomers from the country since Rostov in 2016/17. • This is only Krasnodar's seventh season in UEFA competition – they have featured every year since making their debut in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League. In 2019/20, they were eliminated by Olympiacos in the UEFA Champions League play-offs and went on to finish third in their UEFA Europa League section behind Basel and Getafe, picking up nine points from their six matches (W3 L3). • Third in the Russian Premier League for the second season in a row in 2019/20, Krasnodar had only played four European Cup matches before 2020/21. The first ended in a 1-0 home defeat by Porto in the 2019/20 third qualifying round first leg, only for them to then turn round the tie with a remarkable 3-2 victory in Portugal in which they led 3-0 at half-time. However, Olympiacos proved too strong for Murad Musayev's team in the play-offs, winning 4-0 in Greece and 2-1 in Russia. • Krasnodar had no such problems in this season's play-off, winning both legs of their tie against Greek club PAOK 2- 1 with Rémy Cabella scoring the winner in each game. • The Russian club have won their last three home European matches, having been without a victory in the previous five (D2 L3). • Krasnodar are unbeaten in their two previous games against English clubs, drawing 1-1 at home to Everton in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League group stage – Ari scoring their goal – before a 1-0 away victory. Chelsea • Fourth in the Premier League in 2019/20, this is Chelsea's 17th venture into the UEFA Champions League group stage and a third in four years. The exception came in that 2018/19 campaign, when they won the UEFA Europa League under Maurizio Sarri. • Chelsea's last four UEFA Champions League campaigns have all ended in the round of 16. In 2019/20 they were heavily beaten home (0-3) and away (1-4) by eventual champions Bayern München at that stage. The loss in Munich ended the London club's ten-match unbeaten run away in Europe (W7 D3). • Last season Frank Lampard's side recovered from a Matchday 1 defeat at home to Valencia (0-1) to progress as Group H runners-up with 11 points, finishing behind the Spanish side on head-to-head record. • The Blues have won only one of their last six UEFA Champions League matches (D3 L2). • European champions in 2012 having been runners-up four years earlier, Chelsea have reached the round of 16 on 14 occasions. • The London side have won their UEFA Champions League group 11 times, although they have been runners-up in their section on each of their last two participations. • Chelsea's last trip to Russia brought their first defeat there, a 3-2 loss at Rubin in the 2012/13 UEFA Europa League quarter-final second leg; Rafael Benítez's side prevailed on aggregate having won the first leg 3-1 and went on to claim the trophy. • That was the Blues' first loss against a Russian club having won all their first five matches, including away triumphs in the UEFA Champions League group stage against CSKA Moskva (1-0) in 2004/05 and Spartak Moskva (2-0) in 2010/11. Links and trivia • Has played in England: Rémy Cabella (Newcastle 2014/15) • Cabella helped Newcastle to a 2-1 home Premier League win against Chelsea on 6 December 2014; he was also in the team beaten 2-0 at Stamford Bridge the following month. 2 FC Krasnodar - Chelsea FC Wednesday 28 October 2020 - 18.55CET (20.55 local time) Match press kit Stadium Krasnodar, Krasnodar • Cabella and Olivier Giroud were Montpellier team-mates in their 2011/12 Ligue 1 triumph and also played together for France in 2014. • Thiago Silva was on the books at Dinamo Moskva in 2005, although a serious illness meant he did not make a first- team appearance. • N'Golo Kanté scored his first – and so far only – international goal in France's 4-2 friendly win against Russia at the Stade de France in March 2016. • Kai Havertz set up a goal in Germany's 3-0 friendly defeat of Russia in November 2018.

It was their biggest margin of victory since a 5-0 home success against Anzhi on 31 March 2019. • Kristoffer Olsson set up a goal in Sweden's 2-1 friendly win in Russia on 8 October. • Three days later, a Berg goal was not enough to prevent Sweden losing 2-1 in Croatia in the UEFA Nations League. • Goalkeeper Matvei Safonov helped Russia to a 4-0 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying defeat of Estonia on 9 October and was subsequently called up to the senior squad. • Sergei Petrov will be out of action for the rest of this year with a hamstring injury suffered in Rennes. • Wanderson, Berg, Yegor Sorokin and Olsson missed the game against Spartak with minor injuries.

  • Flow Motifs in Soccer: What Can Passing Behavior Tell Us?
    Journal of Sports Analytics 5 (2019) 299–311 299 DOI 10.3233/JSA-190290 IOS Press Flow motifs in soccer: What can passing behavior tell us? Joris Bekkers and Shaunak Dabadghao∗ Department of Industrial Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands Abstract. Passing is an important and crucial aspect of winning a soccer match. It plays a big role in important decisions made by managers and owners when buying/selling players, picking offensive/defensive strategies and defining a style of play. In this article we show how to support these decisions by analyzing the unique passing behaviors (motifs) of players and teams from the patterns in their passing-possession data. We analyze individual players as well as teams based on the diversity and frequency of their involvement in different motifs. We gather passing and possession data from 4 seasons (2012–15) of 6 big European leagues with 8219 matches, 3532 unique players and 155 unique teams and apply the network motif concept to study the patterns. By introducing an expected goals model we build on the motif concept to measure the effectiveness of styles of play. We also make use of a novel way to represent the motif data (the radar graph) to make comparisons between players and teams across multiple seasons. We show how this analysis can support scouting for players and managers, identifying unique players/teams, finding relationships between position and style and in finding a suitable replacement for La Computadora. 1. Introduction these websites. This opens doors to extract a lot of hidden information on player and team behaviour by In today’s world we see an increasing trend in the devising new metrics and studying the data using availability of data.
