Previous meetings • The sides are meeting for the first time. • AEK's eight games against Austrian sides have ended W3 D1 L4 (W2 L2 at home). • Austria Wien's five encounters with Greek clubs have ended W1 D1 L3 – they have lost both of their previous games in Greece. Form guide • Matchday one's 2-1 success at Rijeka was AEK's second straight UEFA win; prior to that, they had gone five European games without a goal (D2 L3). • Austria Wien's 5-1 loss to AC Milan on matchday one was their worst ever home defeat in the UEFA Cup or UEFA Europa League and their joint heaviest in UEFA competition. • Austria Wien have lost only one of their last nine European away fixtures: W6 D2 L1. • Winners of Greece's end-of-season UEFA Champions League play-offs, AEK have had five previous UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns, most recently in 2011/12. They have only once reached the round of 32, in 2007/08. • Last season's Austrian Bundesliga runners-up, Austria Wien have not survived their last five UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns since making it to the 2004/05 quarter-finals. Links and trivia • The journey from Vienna to Athens is around 1,300km. • AEK midfielder Arnór Ingvi Traustason is on loan from Austria Wien's neighbours Rapid Wien, who he joined in 2016. • AEK's Dmytro Chygrynskiy won the UEFA Cup as a Shakhtar Donetsk player in 2009. The coaches • Manolo Jiménez returned for a second spell as AEK coach in January 2017, having led the club to 2010/11 Greek Cup glory during his first stint. The former Sevilla left-back has also coached Sevilla, Real Zaragoza and al-Rayyan. • Austria Wien coach since 2015, Thorsten Fink won the 2001 UEFA Champions League and several Bundesliga titles as a Bayern midfielder, and secured back-to-back Swiss championships as coach of Basel from 2009–11. 4 AEK Athens FC - FK Austria Wien Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit OAKA Spiros Louis, Athens Team facts AEK Athens Formed: 1924 Nickname: Kitrinomavri (Yellow and Blacks) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 11 (1994) Greek Cup: 15 (2016) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: third qualifying round 2015/16: did not compete in UEFA club competition 2014/15: did not compete in UEFA club competition 2013/14: did not compete in UEFA club competition 2012/13: did not compete in UEFA club competition 2011/12: group stage 2010/11: group stage 2009/10: group stage 2008/09: second qualifying round 2007/08: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 6-0: AEK v Grevenmacher 09/08/01, UEFA Cup qualifying round first leg • Biggest away win 1-4: Maccabi Haifa v AEK 12/12/02, UEFA Cup third round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4: AEK v Sevilla 03/09/07, UEFA Champions League third qualifying round second leg 0-3 on two occasions, most recently v Zenit 16/12/10, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 7-2: Monaco v AEK 18/09/63, European Champion Clubs' Cup preliminary round first leg 5-0 on three occasions, most recently v Barcelona 22/02/01, UEFA Cup fourth round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-0: AEK v Grevenmacher (see above) • Biggest away win 1-4: Maccabi Haifa v AEK (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: AEK v Zenit (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-0 on three occasions, most recently v Barcelona (see above) FK Austria Wien Formed: 1911 Nickname: Die Veilchen (The Violets) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup: (1978) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) 5 AEK Athens FC - FK Austria Wien Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit OAKA Spiros Louis, Athens League title: 24 (2013) Austrian Cup: 27 (2009) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: group stage 2015/16: did not take part in UEFA competition 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA competition 2013/14: UEFA Champions League group stage 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: group stage 2010/11: play-offs 2009/10: group stage 2008/09: first round 2007/08: group stage Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 10-0: Austria Wien v Aris Bonnevoie 28/09/83, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-5: Aris Bonnevoie v Austria Wien 14/09/83, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-5 twice, most recently v AC Milan 14/09/17, UEFA Europa League group stage 0-4: Austria Wien v Juventus 24/10/90, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup second round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: Beroe Stara Zagora v Austria Wien 13/09/72, UEFA Cup first round first leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 10-0: Austria Wien v Aris Bonnevoie (see above) • Biggest away win 0-5: Aris Bonnevoie v Austria Wien (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-5: Austria Wien v AC Milan (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: Beroe Stara Zagora v Austria Wien (see above) 6 AEK Athens FC - FK Austria Wien Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit OAKA Spiros Louis, Athens Squad list AEK Athens FC Current season All-time UCL QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
