Previous meetings • Lazio won 3-2 when the teams met for the first time in UEFA competition on matchday two. • St-Étienne's five fixtures against Italian clubs have ended W1 D2 L2 (W1 D1 L0 at home). • Lazio's 15 games against French opposition have ended W6 D3 L6 (W2 D1 L4 in France). Form guide • St-Étienne made it through the UEFA Cup group stage at the first attempt in 2008/09 but missed the cut last season in their first UEFA Europa League group stage tilt. • Lazio have now successfully navigated their way through their last four UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns, having missed out on the round of 32 in their first two attempts: in 2004/05 and 2009/10. Trivia and links • The journey from Rome to Saint-Etienne is around 750km. • St-Étienne's Jérémy Clément and Benoît Assou-Ekotto could make their 50th UEFA club competition appearances in this game. • Assou-Ekotto and Lazio's Ravel Morrison were team-mates at Queens Park Rangers FC for the latter part of the 2013/14 season, when QPR won promotion to the Premier League. • St-Étienne's Florentin Pogba is the brother of Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba. • Lazio's Filip Djordjević played in France for FC Nantes from 2008–14. The coaches • St-Étienne coach since 2009, Christophe Galtier led Les Verts to French League Cup success in 2012/13. A defender, he started his playing career at home-town club Olympique de Marseille. He returned to Marseille as a coach and worked as assistant to Alain Perrin at St-Étienne before getting the senior job. • A central defender, with Juventus and ACF Fiorentina among others, Stefano Pioli took charge of Lazio in 2014. He has been a coach in Italy's top two divisions since 2003, his clubs including home-town side Parma FC, AC Chievo Verona and most recently Bologna FC. 4 AS Saint-Étienne - SS Lazio Thursday 10 December 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stade Geoffroy Guichard, Saint-Etienne Team facts AS Saint-Étienne Formed: 1919 Nickname: Les Verts (The Greens) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • European Champion Clubs' Cup: (1976) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) Domestic title: 10 (1981) French Cup: 6 (1977) French League Cup: 1 (2013) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: group stage 2013/14: play-offs 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: round of 16 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2005/06: UEFA Intertoto Cup third round Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 7-0: St-Étienne v KuPS Kuopio 01/01/80, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-7: KuPS Kuopio v St-Étienne 17/09/80, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4 twice, most recently v Ipswich Town FC 04/03/81, UEFA Cup quarter-final first leg • Heaviest away defeat 4-0 twice, most recently v Bohemians 1905 03/11/82, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 7-0: St-Étienne v KuPS Kuopio (see above) • Biggest away win 0-7: KuPS Kuopio v St-Étienne (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-4 twice, most recently v Ipswich Town FC (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 4-0: Bohemians 1905 v St-Étienne (see above) SS Lazio Formed: 1900 Nickname: Biancocelesti (White and Sky Blues) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1): 1999 • UEFA Cup: (1998) • UEFA Super Cup (1): 1999 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 2 (2000) 5 AS Saint-Étienne - SS Lazio Thursday 10 December 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stade Geoffroy Guichard, Saint-Etienne Italian Cup: 6 (2013) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA competition 2013/14: round of 32 2012/13: quarter-finals 2011/12: round of 32 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA competition 2009/10: group stage 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA competition 2007/08: UEFA Champions League group stage 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA competition 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 6-0: Lazio v FK Rabotnicki 18/08/11, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg • Biggest away win 0-4 on four occasions, most recently v PFC Levski Sofia 01/10/09, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Lazio v Chelsea FC 04/11/03, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: RC Lens v Lazio 02/11/77, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-0: Lazio v FK Rabotnicki (see above) • Biggest away win 0-4 twice, most recently v PFC Levski Sofia (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Lazio v FC Barcelona 22/10/75, second round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: RC Lens v Lazio (see above) 6 AS Saint-Étienne - SS Lazio Thursday 10 December 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stade Geoffroy Guichard, Saint-Etienne Squad list AS Saint-Étienne Current season All-time QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No.
