FC Schalke 04 and Sporting Clube de Portugal will both be looking to put their first victories on the board in Group G when they meet on matchday three. Match background Schalke • A week after drawing 1-1 at home to NK Maribor on matchday two, Schalke appointed Roberto Di Matteo as their new coach following the departure of Jens Keller. • It is Di Matteo's first role since leaving Chelsea FC in November 2012. That came just six months after he had led the west London club to UEFA Champions League glory with a penalty shoot-out victory over FC Bayern München in the German side's own stadium. • The Königsblauen drew 1-1 at Chelsea on matchday one; in both opening fixtures, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has scored equalising goals. • Schalke won two of their group home matches last season and lost the other. They have won nine of their last 19 European home games, with five draws and five defeats. • Schalke have met Portuguese opponents in UEFA competition on four occasions and have always come out on top. • They faced SL Benfica in the 2010/11 group stage, winning 2-0 at home with Jefferson Farfán and Huntelaar on target late on. In Lisbon, a goal from Benedikt Höwedes helped secure a 2-1 success. • Their three previous meetings had all been knockout ties, Schalke winning 4-1 on penalties against FC Porto in the 2007/08 UEFA Champions League round of 16 after both legs ended 1-0 in favour of the home side. • Porto were also Schalke's first opponents from Portugal. In the 1976/77 UEFA Cup first round, they won 3-2 at home to edge through 5-4 on aggregate. Against SC Braga in the third round of the same competition in 1997/98, Schalke won 2-0 in Gelsenkirchen having first earned a goalless draw away. • The Bundesliga side are appearing in their seventh UEFA Champions League group stage, having reached the knockout rounds in each of the last four. They were eliminated in last season's round of 16 by eventual winners Real Madrid CF, losing 3-1 away and 9-2 on aggregate. Sporting • Sporting's 1-0 win over Hertha BSC Berlin in the 2009/10 UEFA Europa League group stage ended a 16-match wait for success against German opponents. • They subsequently lost the away game in Berlin, also 1-0, and have avoided defeat only once in nine trips to Germany, drawing 0-0 at FC Bayern München in the UEFA Champions League group stage on 31 October 2006. • This is the Lisbon club's sixth group stage campaign and their first since 2008/09, when they reached the last 16 for the first time. • Sporting were denied by NK Maribor's equaliser in added time on matchday one; two weeks later they lost 1-0 at home to Chelsea FC. Coach and player links • Sporting's Cédric was born in Gelsenkirchen but has never played for the Royal Blues, or in Germany. • Nani's Manchester United FC beat Schalke in the 2010/11 semi-final, winning 2-0 in Germany and 4-1 at home. They lost the final 3-1 against FC Barcelona at Wembley. • Schalke's Kevin-Prince Boateng scored in Ghana's 2-1 defeat against Rami Rabia's Egypt in the second leg of a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification play-off on 19 November 2013. • Atsuto Uchida and Junya Tanaka are team-mates for Japan; André Carrilo and Farfán play together for Peru. • Diego Capel scored in Sevilla FC's 4-2 Liga defeat against Huntelaar's Real Madrid CF on 26 April 2009. Match facts Schalke • Boateng is a booking away from a suspension after picking up yellow cards on matchdays one and two. • Schalke dismissed Keller on 7 October following a 2-1 defeat at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim in which Joel Matip was sent off. • Di Matteo's first match at the helm ended in victory, 2-0 against Hertha on Saturday. Huntelaar opened the scoring, his fourth goal in five outings for club and country.

• Jan Kirchhoff, who sustained a knee injury in the 1-1 draw against FC Bayern München on 30 August, made his return as a late substitute versus Hertha. Höwedes, who had been out with a hip problem since the 4-1 defeat by VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach on 13 September, started the game. • Sidney Sam (muscular problems) and Leon Goretzka (hamstring) have resumed light training. • Fabian Giefer (adductors), Sead Kolašinac (knee), Felipe Santana (adductors) and Farfán (knee) are long-term absentees. Sporting • Maurício is a booking away from a suspension after picking up yellow cards on matchdays one and two. • Sporting progressed to the Portuguese Cup fourth round on Saturday, inflicting Porto's first loss in 12 games this term with a 3-1 victory at the Estádio do Dragão. • Rui Patrício saved a penalty from Jackson Martínez with the score 2-1. Maurício, having suffered concussion against Chelsea on matchday two, returned to the side. • Islam Slimani scored twice against FC Penafiel on 4 October as Sporting recorded their second 4-0 away win in three Liga games. • Fredy Montero added the Lions' third goal against Penafiel – his first in any competition since 8 December 2013. • Rami Rabia, yet to appear for Sporting's first team this season, has recovered from an abdominal injury. • Slimani set up the first goal and headed the third in Algeria's 3-0 home victory over Malawi on 15 October, a result that qualified the Desert Foxes for the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations. • They will be joined at the finals by Cape Verde, who made it through after defeating Mozambique 1-0 with the aid of Héldon Ramos's 75th-minute effort. • Oliveira, Ricardo Esgaio, Iuri Medeiros and Carlos Mané featured in both legs of Portugal's 7-4 aggregate triumph over the Netherlands in the 2015 UEFA European Under-21 Championship play-offs. • Mané, a 61st-minute substitute, doubled Portugal's lead in their 2-0 first-leg win in Alkmaar. • João Mário and Cédric made their senior international debuts in Portugal's 2-1 friendly loss to France on 11 October. Mário drew the foul that led to Ricardo Quaresma halving the visitors' arrears from the penalty spot.

9 FC Schalke 04 - Sporting Clube de Portugal Tuesday 21 October 2014 - 20.45CET (20.45 local time) Match press kit Arena AufSchalke, Gelsenkirchen Head coach FC Schalke 04: Roberto Di Matteo Date of birth: 29 May 1970 Nationality: Italian Playing career: FC Schaffhausen, FC Zürich, FC Aarau, SS Lazio, Chelsea FC Coaching career: MK Dons FC, West Bromwich Albion FC, Chelsea FC (assistant), Chelsea, FC Schalke 04 • Born in the Swiss city of Schaffhausen, Di Matteo started his career with the local club, scoring two goals in 50 league appearances over three seasons before moving to Zürich in 1991. Won the Swiss league title with Aarau in 1992/93, his sole season with the club, going on to a three-year spell at Lazio. • Became Chelsea's record signing in 1996 and paid back a chunk of that €5.85m fee with goals in their final victories of the 1997 FA Cup – after 42 seconds, then the fastest in the final's history – and 1998 English League Cup. Scored the only goal of another FA Cup final triumph in 1999/2000, the last final at the old Wembley. • Having won 34 caps for Italy, Di Matteo sustained a triple leg fracture in a UEFA Cup tie against FC St Gallen early in the 2000/01 campaign and was forced to retire in February 2002. Then-manager Claudio Ranieri asked him to lead out the team for the 2002 FA Cup Final, which Chelsea lost to Arsenal FC. • Took charge of MK Dons in July 2008 and, having finished third in the English third tier, was appointed by West Brom the following summer. In his first season, led the club to second place in the Championship and promotion to the Premier League but sacked in February 2011. • That June, Di Matteo returned to Chelsea as assistant to André Villas-Boas and, following the Portuguese coach's dismissal on 4 March 2012, was appointed as interim first-team coach for the remainder of the season. After guiding the Blues to FA Cup and UEFA Champions League glory, Di Matteo was confirmed as manager on a permanent basis that summer but left the club in November 2012, resurfacing at Schalke almost two years later. Sporting Clube de Portugal: Marco Silva Date of birth: 12 July 1977 Nationality: Portuguese Playing career: CF Os Belenenses, Atlético Clube de Portugal, CD Trofense, SC Campomaiorense (loan), Rio Ave FC, SC Braga B, SC Salgueiros, Odivelas FC, Estoril Praia Coaching career: Estoril Praia, Sporting Clube de Portugal • A hard-working defender, Silva spent the majority of his playing days in the Portuguese lower divisions after graduating through the ranks at Belenenses in 1996/97. • Eventually settled at Estoril, where he spent six seasons and was made captain. He ended his career with the club at the end of 2010/11 having made 121 Portuguese Liga appearances for the Canaries. • Served as Estoril's sporting director for a short time in 2011/12 until his appointment as coach five matches into the season. It proved an astute move, Estoril achieving promotion to the top flight as second-tier champions. • Steered Estoril to a surprise fifth-place Liga finish and qualification for the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League, where they progressed through two qualifying rounds to reach the group stage, their most notable result a 1-1 draw with eventual winners Sevilla FC. • Despite the loss of several key players, Silva had assembled another competitive side for the 2013/14 Liga season, guiding Estoril to a club-best finish of fourth. The Cascais team inflicted FC Porto's first home league defeat since October 2008 and ended the campaign with a 1-0 victory at Sporting, convincing the Lions to approach Silva a few days later.
