Young Boys and Astana have both been eliminated but have the consolation of third place in Group B to play for. • The teams are level on points so any winner would be assured of third spot. Previous meetings • Young Boys returned from Kazakhstan with a 0-0 draw when the sides met for the first time on matchday two. • The only previous UEFA competition encounters between Swiss and Kazakh clubs came in the 2006/07 UEFA Cup first qualifying round, where Basel beat Tobol Kostanay 3-1 at home before recording a 0-0 draw in Kazakhstan. Form guide • Young Boys have lost five of their last seven European home fixtures. • Astana are without a win in 12 UEFA away games (D5 L7) since a 3-0 success at AIK Solna in an August 2014 UEFA Europa League qualifier. • Young Boys' elimination this season means they have progressed through two of their four UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns to date. • Astana are making their UEFA Europa League group stage debut, having participated in the UEFA Champions League group stage last term. Links and trivia • The journey from Astana to Berne is around 4,550km. • None of Astana's players have any Swiss experience, though at least a couple should be fluent German speakers; Kazakh right-back Konstantin Engel played in Germany for ten years before joining Astana in the summer, while Macedonian winger Agim Ibraimi spent two years in Austria with Salzburg (2006–08) when current Young Boys boss Adi Hütter was a player and assistant coach with the Austrian club's amateur section. • Astana collected their third successive Kazakh title on 26 October; their Premier League season is now over. The coaches • Adi Hütter took command at Young Boys in September 2015, having steered Salzburg to a domestic double in his native Austria in his sole campaign in charge, 2014/15. He had spent the bulk of his career as a midfielder at the Salzburg outfit, returning as a youth specialist after retirement. • Former Bulgaria midfielder Stanimir Stoilov has won three league titles since coming to Kazakhstan in 2014, as well as leading Astana into last autumn's UEFA Champions League group stage – a phase he had earlier graced as a coach with Levski Sofia. Chapecoense commemoration Teams taking part in all of the matchday six UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League fixtures will observe a minute's silence to pay respect to the victims of last week's air disaster involving the Chapecoense team and accompanying delegation. The Brazilian club lost most of their players and coaching staff in the accident, which occurred in Colombia, where Chapecoense were due to play the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final against Atlético Nacional. "European football is united in expressing its deepest sympathy to Chapecoense, the Brazilian Football Confederation [CBF], CONMEBOL and the families of all the victims," said UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin. "This tragedy has shaken the world of football, and we would like to send our support to all of those affected by it."
