Previous meetings • The teams are meeting for the first time in UEFA competition. • Bordeaux are unbeaten in four games against Swiss opponents: W2 D2 L0 (W1 D1 L0 at home – W1 D1 L0 away). • Sion's record in four meetings with French sides is W1 D1 L2 (W1 D1 L0 at home – W0 D0 L2 in France). They lost their two games in France by an aggregate score of 7-1. Form guide • Bordeaux, unbeaten at home in Europe this term (W2 D1), have started Group B with two draws. • Sion's 1-1 draw at Liverpool FC on matchday two means they have not won in seven European away fixtures (D4 L3) since a 1-0 success at TPS Turku in the 1998 UEFA Intertoto Cup. • Bordeaux made it through to the round of 32 in their first two UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns, but missed the cut in their most recent appearance, in 2013/14. • Sion are featuring in the group stage of a major UEFA competition for the first time. Trivia and links • The journey from Sion to Bordeaux is just under 650km. • Sion defender Gabriel Cichero played in France with RC Lens (2011/12) and FC Nantes (2012–14). The coaches • Bordeaux's Willy Sagnol was appointed in 2014 after a spell as France Under-21 coach. The 38-year-old shone as a right-back, lifting a French title with AS Monaco FC before heading to Germany, where he won five Bundesliga crowns and the 2000/01 UEFA Champions League with FC Bayern München. • A UEFA Cup finalist with Bordeaux in 1996, striker Tholot ended his playing career as player-coach at Sion and took charge of the club for a third time in 2014. He led Sion to Swiss Cup success in 2009 in his second stint and won that trophy again last term. • Tholot played for Bordeaux from 1995 to 1997, helping them reach the 1997 League Cup final, where he scored in a 6-5 penalty shoot-out defeat by RC Strasbourg. 3 FC Girondins de Bordeaux - FC Sion Thursday 22 October 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Team facts FC Girondins de Bordeaux Formed: 1881 Nicknames: Les Marine et Blanc (The Navy and Whites), Les Hommes au Scapulaire (The Men in the V-necks) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup: (1996) • UEFA Intertoto Cup: 1995 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 6 (2009) French Cup: 4 (2013) League Cup: 3 (2009) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2013/14: group stage 2012/13: round of 16 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2008/09: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2007/08: round of 32 2006/07: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 6-0: Bordeaux v ŠKM Púchov 17/09/02, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Biggest away win 0-4: Víkingur Reykjavík v Bordeaux 17/09/81, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4: Bordeaux v Valencia CF 15/03/00, UEFA Champions League second group stage • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: Parma FC v Bordeaux 16/03/99, UEFA Cup quarter-final second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-0: Bordeaux v ŠKM Púchov (see above) • Biggest away win 0-4: Víkingur Reykjavík v Bordeaux (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Bordeaux v FC Bayern München 15/05/96, final first leg 0-2 twice, most recently v RSC Anderlecht 28/11/02, third round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: Parma FC v Bordeaux (see above) FC Sion Formed: 1909 Nickname: Les Sédunois (local name for Sion natives) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None 4 FC Girondins de Bordeaux - FC Sion Thursday 22 October 2015 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 2 (1997) Swiss Cup: 13 (2015) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: play-offs 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: play-offs 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2007/08: first round 2006/07: first round 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 5-1: Sion v Galatasaray AŞ 15/09/65, European Cup Winners' Cup preliminary round first leg 4-0: Sion v AS Jeunesse Esch 23/07/97, UEFA Champions League first qualifying round first leg • Biggest away win 0-4: FC Vinnytsa v Sion 26/09/96, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup first round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4: Sion v Galatasaray AŞ 13/08/97, UEFA Champions League second qualifying round first leg 1-4: Sion v Aberdeen FC 01/09/82, European Cup Winners' Cup preliminary round second leg 0-3 (forfeit): Sion v Celtic FC 25/08/11, UEFA Europa League play-off second leg • Heaviest away defeat 8-1: 1.
