First European goals for midfielders Jan Kuchta (two) and Abdallah Sima gave them the edge against their French visitors, for whom Amine Gouiri kept up his goal-a-game record in the section before Dan Ndoye claimed a consolation in added time. Previous meetings • Slavia and Nice have been paired once before, in the 1997/98 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup second round, and it was only the away goals rule that separated them, the Czech side going through after two draws – 2-2 in Nice, 1-1 in Prague. • Those were the French club's only matches against Czech opposition prior to Matchday 3. Slavia have played an additional nine UEFA games against teams from France, where they have won just once in five visits – 1-0 after extra time against Lens in the third round of the 1995/96 UEFA Cup (after a 0-0 home draw), a competition in which they went on to reach the semi-finals before losing both legs 1-0 to Bordeaux. Form guide Nice • After two years without European football, Nice qualified for a third appearance in the UEFA Europa League group stage after finishing fifth in the truncated 2019/20 Ligue 1 campaign. • Les Aiglons finished bottom of their group in 2016/17 but progressed as runners-up the following year in a section comprising Lazio, Vitesse and Zulte Waregem before going out to Lokomotiv Moskva (2-3 h, 0-1 a) in the round of 32. • Nice have won three of their last four home fixtures in the UEFA Europa League group stage (L1), including 1-0 against Hapoel Beer-Sheva on Matchday 2. Slavia • Champions of the Czech Republic for the third time in four years last season, Slavia missed out on a second successive UEFA Champions League group stage adventure this term when, led again by coach Jindřich Trpišovský, they were defeated by Midtjylland in the play-offs (0-0 h, 1-4 a). • Fourth in their UEFA Champions League section last season, behind Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund and Internazionale, Slavia are competing in the UEFA Europa League group stage for the fourth time. They failed to make further progress in 2009/10 and 2017/18 but went all the way to the quarter-finals on their last appearance, in 2018/19, despite scoring just four goals in the group stage. • Slavia have won just one of their last eight European away fixtures (D3 L4), though they did draw at both Inter (1-1) and Barcelona (0-0) in last season's UEFA Champions League. Their overall record on the road in the UEFA Europa League proper is W3 D4 L6, the latest defeat 3-1 at Hapoel Beer-Sheva on Matchday 1. Links and trivia • The teams met in a pre-season friendly in Prague on 16 July 2017, Slavia coming from behind to win 4-1. • Slavia midfielder Nicolae Stanciu was in the Romania side that lost 2-1 to France in the opening match of UEFA EURO 2016. • Nice have played more matches in the UEFA Europa League, group stage to final, without registering a draw (17) than any other club. 4 OGC Nice - SK Slavia Praha Thursday 26 November 2020 - 21.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Grand Stade de Nice, Nice Team facts OGC Nice Formed: 1904 Nickname: Les Aiglons (The Eaglets) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 4 (1959) French Cup: 3 (1997) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2019/20: did not take part in UEFA competition 2018/19: did not take part in UEFA competition 2017/18: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2016/17: group stage 2015/16: did not take part in UEFA competition 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA competition 2013/14: play-offs 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 4-0: Nice v Fenerbahçe 24/10/73, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 1-5 Zulte Waregem v Nice 14/09/17, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Nice v Lazio 19/10/17, UEFA Europa League group stage 0-2 twice, most recently v Napoli 22/08/17, UEFA Champions League play-off second leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-2: Leverkusen v Nice 22/10/20, UEFA Europa League group stage 4-0: Köln v Nice 12/12/73, UEFA Cup third round first leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 4-0: Nice v Fenerbahçe (see above) • Biggest away win 1-5: Zulte Waregem v Nice (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Nice v Lazio (see above) 0-2: Nice v Salzburg 03/11/16, group stage • Heaviest away defeat 6-2: Leverkusen v Nice (see above) 4-0: Köln v Nice (see above) SK Slavia Praha Formed: 1892 Nickname: Sešívaní (The Sewn-Ups) 5 OGC Nice - SK Slavia Praha Thursday 26 November 2020 - 21.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Grand Stade de Nice, Nice UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 20 (2020) National cup: 5 (2019) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2019/20: UEFA Champions League group stage 2018/19: quarter-finals (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2017/18: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2016/17: play-offs 2015/16: did not take part in UEFA competition 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA competition 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 5-1 three times, most recently v Partizan 14/11/02, UEFA Cup second round second leg 4-0 twice, most recently v PAOK 12/12/02, UEFA Cup third round second leg • Biggest away win 0-4: Cork City v Slavia 23/08/94, UEFA Cup preliminary round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-5: Slavia v LOSC Lille 01/10/09, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: Arsenal v Slavia 23/10/07, UEFA Champions League group stage UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 5-1 three times, most recently v Partizan (see above) 4-0 twice, most recently v PAOK (see above) • Biggest away win 0-4: Cork City v Slavia (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-5: Slavia v LOSC Lille (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 3-0 three times, most recently v Leeds United 16/03/00, quarter-finals first leg 6 OGC Nice - SK Slavia Praha Thursday 26 November 2020 - 21.00CET (21.00 local time) Match press kit Grand Stade de Nice, Nice Squad list OGC Nice Current season All-time UEL League UEL UEFA No.
