The Spanish outfit will also qualify if FC Viktoria Plzeň do not beat Dinamo. Previous meetings • Rapid won 2-1 when the sides met for the first time in UEFA competition on matchday one. • Villarreal's previous four encounters with Austrian sides were all meetings with FC Salzburg (W2 D0 L2); most recently, they eliminated the Austrian champions in last season's UEFA Europa League round of 16. • Rapid's record in ten games against Spanish teams is W3 D2 L5 (W0 D2 L3 in Spain). Their matchday one triumph over Villlareal ended a run of five games without a victory against Spanish clubs (D2 L3) stretching back to 1968. Form guide • Villarreal have won their last three Group E games since their loss in Vienna. The Yellow Submarine are unbeaten in their last eight group stage home games (W7 D1). • Rapid Wien and SSC Napoli are the only sides with 100% records in this season's group stage. Only six teams have ever won all six group games in a UEFA Europa League campaign, and in only one previous edition have two clubs achieved the feat – Tottenham Hotspur FC and Salzburg in 2013/14. • Rapid will make it through the group stage for the first time this season, having fallen short in their four previous UEFA Europa League campaigns. • Villarreal's five past group stage campaigns have all ended in success. Trivia and links • The journey from Vienna to Villarreal is around 1,600km. • This is Rapid's 250th UEFA club competition game; their previous 249 have ended W100 D48 L101. • Rapid boast Spanish talent in the form of forward Tomi Correa, who started his career at CD Tenerife in his native Canary Islands. • Rapid's Croatian striker Matej Jelić was the joint top scorer in UEFA Europa League qualifying this season, hitting seven goals for MŠK Žilina before moving to Austria. The coaches • Marcelino's career as a midfielder was ended early by injury. As a coach, he worked his way up the Spanish leagues, taking over at Villarreal in 2013 following spells at Real Zaragoza, Real Racing Club and Sevilla FC. • A midfielder of Croatian descent, Vienna-born Zoran Barisic played for Rapid from 1993–95 and has been on the coaching staff since 2006. He has been in sole command at the club since 2013, and led them to a runners-up finish in the Bundesliga last season. 4 Villarreal CF - SK Rapid Wien Thursday 26 November 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Estadio El Madrigal, Villarreal Team facts Villarreal CF Formed: 1923 Nickname: El Submarino Amarillo (The Yellow Submarine) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Intertoto Cup (2): 2003, 2004 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) None Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: round of 16 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: UEFA Champions League group stage 2010/11: semi-finals 2009/10: round of 32 2008/09: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2007/08: round of 32 2006/07: UEFA Intertoto Cup third round 2005/06: UEFA Champions League semi-finals Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 6-1: Villarreal v NAC Breda 27/08/09, UEFA Europa League play-off second leg 5-0: Villarreal v FC Dnepr Mogilev 19/08/10, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg • Biggest away win 0-3 three times, most recently v FC Astana 21/08/14, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Villarreal v Manchester City FC 02/11/11, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Porto v Villarreal 28/04/11, UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-1: Villarreal v NAC Breda (see above) 5-0: Villarreal v FC Dnepr Mogilev (see above) • Biggest away win 0-3: FC Astana v Villarreal (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Villarreal v Sevilla FC 12/03/15, round of 16 first leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Porto v Villarreal (see above) SK Rapid Wien Formed: 1899 Nickname: Die Grün-Weißen (The Green-Whites) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup: (1985), (1996) • UEFA Intertoto Cup: 2007 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) 5 Villarreal CF - SK Rapid Wien Thursday 26 November 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Estadio El Madrigal, Villarreal League title: 32 (2008) Austrian Cup: 14 (1995) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: play-offs 2013/14: group stage 2012/13: group stage 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2010/11: group stage 2009/10: group stage 2008/09: UEFA Champions League second qualifying round 2007/08: first round (having transferred from UEFA Intertoto Cup) 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2005/06: UEFA Champions League group stage Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 8-0: Rapid v FC Avenir Beggen 29/09/82, European Champions Clubs' Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 1-6: F91 Dudelange v Rapid 27/07/05, UEFA Champions League second qualifying round first leg 0-5: FC Avenir Beggen v Rapid 15/09/82, European Champions Clubs' Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 2-6: Rapid v ACF Fiorentina 25/10/61, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup first round second leg 0-4: Rapid v Bayer 04 Leverkusen 25/10/12, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 7-2: AC Milan v Rapid 12/02/56, European Champion Clubs' Cup quarter-final second leg 5-0: Juventus v Rapid 30/10/96, UEFA Champions League group stage UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-1: Rapid v 1.
