Match background

Jesper Gronkjær will be up against one of his old clubs as FC København and Club Atlético de Madrid seek wins to seal a qualifying place in Group B.

• København midfielder Gronkjær may feel he has a point to prove as he faces Atlético, who he played for during the 2004/05 season, making 16 league appearances without scoring before moving on to VfB Stuttgart.

• Third in the section with four points, København know a win will seal a place in the last 32 and take the pressure off for their Matchday 5 trip to Aberdeen FC.

• Victory for Atlético would seal their place in the last 32 regardless of the result of their final game against Panathinaikos FC.

• The two sides have never met in UEFA club competition in their current forms, but Kjøbenhavens BK – who merged with B 1903 København to form FC København in 1992 – played Atlético in the first round of the 1974/75 UEFA Cup.

• Goals from Niels Sørensen and Niels Christian Holmstrøm in the first leg in were cancelled out by efforts from Ruben Ayala and Ignacio Salcedo for Atlético before Henrik Bernburg scored the winner in a match which also saw current Spain coach Luis Aragonés make a cameo appearance.

• However, Atlético showed no mercy in the second leg, with strikes from Eugenio Leal and José Gárate either side of two from Javier Iruretagoyena sealing a 4-0 victory.

• Those games represent Atlético's only previous experience of Danish opposition.

• B 1903 – the side that merged with Kjøbenhavens to form København – also played two games against a Spanish side, losing out to Valencia CF in the first round of the 1979/80 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, drawing 2-2 at home and losing 4-0 in Spain.

• In their current guise, København have played four games against sides from Spain in UEFA club competition, drawing two and losing the other two. They are thus looking for a first win against a Primera División side as Atlético come calling.

• Atlético defender Giourkas Seitaridis was ruled out for six weeks in mid-November after undergoing surgery on an achilles tendon injury.

• Panathinaikos are at home against FC Lokomotiv Moskva in Wednesday's other Group B game.

2006/07 season Domestic record: Atlético ended last season seventh in the Primera División, qualifying for the UEFA Intertoto Cup. It was their highest finish since 2003/04 and could have been better for Javier Aguirre's side, who were on the cusp of the top four for a long time before falling away in the second half of the campaign.

The UEFA Cup grew out of the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup and was first held in 1971/72. The UEFA Cup is open to the holders, the teams finishing in leading positions behind the champions in their domestic top flights, the winners of national cup competitions, the winners of the League Cup in certain countries, the eleven winners of the final matches in the UEFA Intertoto Cup, three clubs from UEFA's Fair Play League and 16 clubs eliminated from the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League. The eight third-placed clubs at the end of the UEFA Champions League group stage drop into the UEFA Cup, in time for the tournament's knockout phase.

• Format: If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of all the group matches, the following criteria will be applied to determine the rankings: a) superior goal difference from all group matches played; b) higher number of goals scored; c) higher number of goals scored away; d) higher number of wins; e) higher number of away wins; f) higher number of coefficient points accumulated by the club in question, as well as its association, over the previous five seasons

• Locally-trained players rule: In February 2005, UEFA announced that the 'A' list that teams submit for UEFA club competitions will continue to be limited to 25 players, and from 2007/08, at least six places on this list will be reserved for players trained by the club's own football academy of which half can be players trained by other clubs from within the same association of the said club.

The 'B' list will also continue to exist - involving an unlimited number of Under-21 players who have been at the club for two seasons. In 2006/07 the number of locally-trained players required began at four but the current six will rise to eight in 2008/09, with up to half of each figure allowed to be association trained.

A club-trained player is defined as a player who has been registered for a minimum of three seasons with the club between the age of 15 and 21, whereas an association-trained player is one who has been registered for at least three seasons by the club or by other clubs affiliated to the same association between the age of 15 and 21.

UEFA is concerned some clubs are not training enough of their own players, but simply taking them from elsewhere. The proposed measures have the objective of creating a better balance in domestic competitions, preventing clubs from simply 'hoarding' players in squads and creating a system whereby locally-trained players would be given a greater opportunity to play regularly in club sides - ensuring a large reservoir of talent for national teams as a consequence.

• Competition format: Two qualifying rounds produce a first round of 80 teams who play over two legs to find the 40 clubs that make up the group stage. This phase comprises eight groups of five, with each side playing four games, two at home and two away. The winners, runners-up and third-placed teams from each section advance to the last 32 where they are joined by the eight third-placed clubs from the UEFA Champions League. Here, the traditional two-match knockout format resumes, until the final. The dates for the games are as follows: the Round of 32 takes place on 13/14 and 21 February; Round of 16 on 6 and 12/13 March; quarter-finals on 3 and 10 April; semi-finals on 24 April and 1 May. The 2007/08 UEFA Cup final will be held at the City of Manchester Stadium on 14 May.

• Player registration: UEFA regulations state that for all UEFA Cup matches from the start of the Round of 32, a club may register a maximum of three new eligible players within their squad of 25 for the remaining matches in the current competition. Such registration must be completed by 1 February at the latest. One player from the above quota of three who has played UEFA club competition matches for another competing club in the current season may exceptionally be registered, provided that the player has not been fielded by another club in the UEFA Cup this season.
