Previous meetings • Valencia have dominated past games between the sides, winning three of the four matches. LOSC avoided defeat in the first match, earning a 1-1 home draw in the 2009/10 UEFA Europa League group stage, but went down 3-1 in the away fixture. • When the sides reconvened in the 2012/13 UEFA Champions League group stage, Valencia won 2-0 at home and 1-0 in France, Jonas scoring all three of their goals. Form guide LOSC • LOSC's first UEFA Champions League group game in seven seasons ended in disappointment on Matchday 1, Ajax inflicting a tenth loss in their 17 away games in the competition proper (W3 D4) with a 3-0 victory in Amsterdam. • The French club's home game against Chelsea last time out ended in a 2-1 defeat, extending their run without a home victory in the UEFA Champions League proper to nine matches. • Les Dogues lost all three home games in their last group appearance, in 2012/13; their last home victory in the UEFA Champions League, group stage to final, was a 3-1 defeat of AEK Athens on Matchday 3 in 2006/07. Their subsequent record is D3 L6. • LOSC have not won a home European match since a 2-0 defeat of Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League play-offs in August 2012; their record since is D4 L6. • Second in Ligue 1 last term, this is LOSC's sixth appearance in the UEFA Champions League group stage and their first since 2012/13. Only one of those previous five campaigns has extended into the knockout rounds, in 2006/07; seven years ago they finished bottom of a section including Bayern München, Valencia and BATE Borisov. • LOSC's most recent foray into continental competition came in 2016/17 and lasted only one tie, Gabala of Azerbaijan running out 2-1 aggregate winners in the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round (1-1 h, 0-1 a). • This is LOSC's seventh home game against a Spanish club; they were unbeaten in the first five matches (W2 D3) before losing to Valencia in December 2012. Home and away, they have won only two of their 11 matches (D4 L5) and none of the last five (D1 L4), and have yet to score more than one goal in any of those games. Valencia • Rodrigo's 74th-minute goal gave Valencia three points at Chelsea in their first fixture, although they needed a late penalty miss from Ross Barkley to preserve that advantage. They went down 3-0 at home to Ajax last time out. • The Matchday 1 win at Chelsea ended Valencia's five-match run without an away victory in the UEFA Champions League (D2 L3), and was their fourth victory in their last 11 away games in the competition, group stage to final (D3 L4). • Valencia have scored only twice in their last six away UEFA Champions League matches. • Fourth in the Spanish Liga in 2018/19, this is Valencia's 12th UEFA Champions League group stage campaign. Finalists in both 1999/2000 and 2000/01, they have not reached the last 16 since 2012/13.

  • Ligue 1 Guide 2021/22
    2021/2022 Ligue 1 Preview Guide INTRODUCTION After a historically close title race that saw four teams in the running Ligue 1 is back with no small amount of fanfare following a busy summer. Of those four sides, while Lille and Lyon have been relatively quiet as they try to consolidate under new managers, Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain have been eager participants in the mercato, buying well in a way that addresses the two sides’ needs. Nice and Rennes have also done some canny business in the offseason, to say nothing of Marseille’s flood of arrivals, but the discussions about pro- spective title favorites in France have to start and end with the capital side. Even as rumors swirl around the potential departure of Kylian Mbappé, it’s hard to argue that Paris Saint-Ger- main haven’t done their utmost to convince their young star to stay. At least, that is, if one judges by their transfer activity. The arrivals of Sergio Ramos, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Georginio Wijnaldum, and Achraf Hakimi have bolstered Mauricio Pochettino’s side in key areas whilst also adding another layer of dynamism. If he can keep his squad happy and balanced, this team looks as potent as any in Europe, Elsewhere, Monaco are probably best-equipped to challenge, even as they will have to contend with playing European football. The arrivals of Myron Boadu, Alexander Nübel and Ismail Jakobs look to be upgrades, and so long as Niko Kovac’s exciting, front-foot football remains in place and so do all of its key elements.

  • Le Barça Lance Sa Chasse Au Sextuplé Sans Neymar
    Sport / Sports Supercoupe d'Europe Le Barça lance sa chasse au sextuplé sans Neymar © D.R. Le FC Barcelone, insatiable vainqueur du triplé Liga-Coupe-Ligue des champions, repart en chasse avec la Supercoupe d'Europe mardi contre Séville et visera, malgré l'absence de Neymar, son quatrième titre sur six possibles en 2015. À Tbilissi, en Géorgie, le Barça peut lancer sa saison par un nouveau trophée, avant de disputer la Supercoupe d'Espagne contre l'Athletic Bilbao (14 et 17 août) puis le Mondial des clubs en décembre. C'est une opportunité en or d'égaler la moisson de six titres réussie en 2009 par l'équipe barcelonaise, alors entraînée par Pep Guardiola. “Le triplé relève désormais d'un passé merveilleux. Maintenant, ce qui nous intéresse, c'est le sextuplé”, a résumé cet été l'actuel entraîneur blaugrana, Luis Enrique. Mais les Catalans vont devoir garder leur instinct de prédateur malgré le forfait de Neymar, victime des oreillons. Indisponible deux semaines, l'attaquant brésilien devrait manquer les deux Supercoupes, voire la première journée de Liga le week-end du 23 août. Sans “Ney”, le formidable trio d'attaque “MSN” du Barça se réduira donc au duo composé de l'Argentin Lionel Messi et de l'Uruguayen Luis Suarez. L'Espagnol Pedro devrait compléter la ligne offensive. Messi a les crocs Chacun à sa manière, ces trois-là ont les crocs: Messi a encore échoué cet été en finale d'une grande compétition internationale, cette fois la Copa America, un tournoi que Suarez n'a pas pu disputer pour cause de suspension.
