Form guide • Qarabağ held St-Étienne to a 0-0 draw on matchday one but have yet to score against French opponents in three games. • In the nations' only encounters at senior level, France beat Azerbaijan 2-0 away and 10-0 at home in EURO '96 qualifying. Azerbaijan's only victory against France in a men's UEFA competition was a 2-0 success in the 2005 UEFA European Under-17 Championship elite round. Their other three age-group meetings ended in French wins. • St-Étienne have drawn all four of their group stage games, and had not scored or conceded in Group F until they drew 1-1 with FC Internazionale Milano on matchday four. • Qarabağ earned the first UEFA group stage victory by an Azerbaijani side – home or away – when they beat FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk in Kyiv on matchday three. Trivia and links • Qarabağ's Brazilian midfielder Richard Almeida is one of the three most fouled players in the group stage; he, Alexander Büttner (FC Dinamo Moskva) and Bruno Gama (FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk) were infringed against 15 times each over the first four matchdays. • Qarabağ are only the second Azeri side to feature in a UEFA club competition group stage. Neftçi PFK were the pioneers, in the 2012/13 UEFA Europa League group stage, recording three draws and three defeats. The coaches • A defender for hometown club Olympique de Marseille, LOSC Lille and Toulouse FC among others, St-Étienne boss Christophe Galtier took up his current position in 2009, helping Les Verts to win the 2012/13 French League Cup. He had previously assisted Alain Perrin and Richard Tardy, working in England and Greece as well as France. • Qarabağ coach Gurban Gurbanov is Azerbaijan's all-time top scorer at international level with 14 goals. He played in Russia but enjoyed perhaps his most celebrated years with Neftçi, where he later started out as a coach. In charge at Qarabağ since 2008, he led the club to their second title – after a 21-year wait – last season. 3 AS Saint-Étienne - Qarabağ FK Thursday 27 November 2014 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Geoffroy-Guichard, Saint-Etienne Team facts AS Saint-Étienne Formed: 1919 Nickname: Les Verts (The Greens) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • European Champion Clubs' Cup: (1976) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) Domestic title: 10 (1981) French Cup: 6 (1977) French League Cup: 1 (2013) Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2013/14: play-offs 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: round of 16 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2005/06: UEFA Intertoto Cup third round 2004/05: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 7-0: St-Étienne v KuPS Kuopio 01/01/80, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-7: KuPS Kuopio v St-Étienne 17/09/80, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4 twice, most recently v Ipswich Town FC 04/03/81, UEFA Cup quarter-final first leg • Heaviest away defeat 4-0 twice, most recently v Bohemians 1905 03/11/82, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 7-0: St-Étienne v KuPS Kuopio (see above) • Biggest away win 0-7: KuPS Kuopio v St-Étienne (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-4 twice, most recently v Ipswich Town FC (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 4-0: Bohemians 1905 v St-Étienne (see above) Qarabağ FK Formed: 1951 Nickname: Atlılar (The Horsemen) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • none Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) Domestic title: 2 (2014) Azerbaijani Cup: 3 (2009) 4 AS Saint-Étienne - Qarabağ FK Thursday 27 November 2014 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Geoffroy-Guichard, Saint-Etienne Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2013/14: play-offs 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: third qualifying round 2010/11: play-offs 2009/10: play-offs 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2006/07: first qualifying round 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2004/05: first qualifying round Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 4-0: Qarabağ v Valletta FC 22/07/14, UEFA Europa League second qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-4: FK Banga v Qarabağ 30/06/11, UEFA Europa League first qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Qarabağ v FC København 27/08/98, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup qualifying phase second leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: FC København v Qarabağ 13/08/98, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup qualifying phase first leg 6-0: Montpellier Herault SC v Qarabağ 10/07/99, UEFA Intertoto Cup second round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 4-0: Qarabağ v Valletta FC (see above) • Biggest away win 0-4: FK Banga v Qarabağ (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Qarabağ v FK Jablonec 30/07/97, first qualifying phase second leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: FK Jablonec v Qarabağ 23/07/97, first qualifying phase first leg 5 AS Saint-Étienne - Qarabağ FK Thursday 27 November 2014 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Geoffroy-Guichard, Saint-Etienne Squad list AS Saint-Étienne Current season All-time QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.

  • 2018/2019 Ligue 1 Preview Guide
    2018/2019 LIGUE 1 PREVIEW GUIDE As Ligue 1 begins again, there is a rare air of expectancy. No, there haven’t been the sort of blockbuster transfers of the likes of Kylian Mbappé or Neymar, just the usual flow of some of the league’s best players to England and Spain, in the form of Malcom, Fabinho, Thomas Le- mar, Issa Diop, and others.But there have also been a number of brilliant signings made under the radar, and given the recent record of French clubs in turning young players around for con- siderable profit, the league’s official new slogan “The League ofalents” T may be more apt than the casual observer may realise. Paris Saint-Germain, of course, remain prohibitive favourites for the title, but have enough weaknesses, particularly at left back and in defensive midfield as new manager Thomas uchelT toys with the idea of a back three. Still, though, this marks a decided summer of change for the champions, for whom Gianluigi Buffon is their only signing, a marked contrast from previous spending. Still, though, a full season of Neymar and further development from Kylian Mbappé should leave them well-placed to repeat. Away from the capital, Lyon and Marseille haven’t experienced much in the way of movement, with both clubs losing only a few spare parts, as Nabil Fékir’s mooted move to Liverpool failed to come to fruition. The additions of Léo Dubois and Martin Terrier follow on from their recent trend (Lucas Tousart, Tanguy N’Dombélé) of buying young players from other clubs, hoping to reap the benefits by selling them on.

    ! The GFFN 100 ! A Get French Football News Publication Rights Reserved ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !1 Note From the Editor: Welcome to the Get French Football News 100, a publication that celebrates the enactments of footballers associated with French football over the course of 2013. " The Get French Football News team got together last December to bounce ideas about a way in which we could mark the end of an explosive year in French football and we invite you to indulge in the final product. " After all, it has been quite some year. Qatari-backed Paris Saint Germain lifted their first Ligue 1 title for 19 years and were unlucky to be edged out in their Champions League Quarter Final duel with one of Europe’s greatest clubs in FC Barcelona, only on the away goal rule. " French football history was made on many fronts in 2013 with a Claude Puel-inspired OGC Nice team qualifying for their first European campaign for 15 years, St Étienne winning their first ever Coupe de la Ligue and the French national team becoming the first side in history to turnaround a 1st leg two goal deficit in a European World Cup Qualifying Playo# to book their place in Brazil for 2014. " Invariably in football, where there are highs there are also lows. One of the former mainstay clubs Le Mans FC went into liquidation and were subsequently relegated to the 6th tier of French football (DH). The French football world was rocked by the loss of former manager and player Bruno Metsu who famously took Senegal to the quarter finals of the 2002 World Cup, tragically losing his battle with cancer at the age of just 59.

  • Ligue 1 2014/2015: Your Guide to the Season Ahead
    Ligue 1 2014/2015: Your Guide to the Season Ahead Get French Football News A Note from the Editor: From Copacabana beach to the Stade Auguste Delaune: Ligue 1 kicks off again on the 8th of August when Reims host back-to-back champions Paris Saint Germain in the first encounter of the new season. The summer brought with it one of the most wholesome World Cups in recent history, where Ligue 1 stars both thrived and blossomed. Whether you were marveling at David Ospina or Guillermo Ochoa between the sticks, noting the potential of Serge Aurier or appreciating the sheer brilliance of James Rodriguez, it seemed that wherever one turned; the spirit of France’s top flight was being embodied by some of its most emblematic characters. While the majority of the aforementioned stars will undoubtedly move on this summer, Ligue 1 is not standing still. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is ready to lead PSG to Champions League glory, regardless of the supposed limitations that Financial Fair Play regulations have imposed on the Ligue 1 champions. The seasonal managerial merry-go-round has gone some way to reshuffling the pack and Willy Sagnol, Marcelo Bielsa, Hubert Fournier, Claude Makélélé, Leonardo Jardim and Jean Luc Vasseur have all been handed fresh starts at various outfits. A new campaign brings with it three new sides. Ligue 1 welcomes back an eclectic bunch of former stalwarts with open arms in Metz, Caen and Lens. The latter club had the last laugh during a summer that may well be remembered for the administrative headaches that the French football watchdog the DNCG were causing, initially refusing Antoine Kombouaré’s men entry into France’s top flight.
