Uefa Europa League UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE - 2015/16 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS Amsterdam ArenA - Amsterdam Thursday 17 September 2015 19.00CET (19.00 local time) AFC Ajax Group A - Matchday 1 Celtic FC Last updated 16/09/2015 10:59CET Match background 2 Legend 3 1 AFC Ajax - Celtic FC Thursday 17 September 2015 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Amsterdam ArenA, Amsterdam Match background A 2013/14 UEFA Champions League meeting will be in the minds of players on both sides as AFC Ajax kick off UEFA Europa League Group A with a high-profile encounter with Celtic FC. Previous meetings • The teams have met eight times in UEFA club competition, Ajax possessing the record W3 D1 L4 (W2 D0 L2 in Amsterdam). The sides have scored ten goals each in those ties. • Frank de Boer was in charge of Ajax in the sides' most recent meetings, in the 2013/14 UEFA Champions League group stage: Ajax lost 2-1 to Neil Lennon's Hoops in Glasgow, but won the home fixture 1-0. • The teams for that game at the Amsterdam ArenA on 6 November 2013 were: Ajax: Cillessen, Van Rhijn, Sigthórsson (Van der Hoorn 90+5), De Jong, Veltman, Boilesen, Blind, Klaassen (Poulsen 83), Schöne, Denswil, Serero (Fischer 72). Celtic: Forster, Izaguirre, Ambrose, Van Dijk, Samaras, Stokes (Boerrigter 73), Commons (Pukki 81), Mulgrew, Lustig, Kayal (Ledley 77), Forrest. Form guide • Ajax have won four of their last five European home games, the exception being a 3-2 loss to SK Rapid Wien in this season's UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. • Celtic have failed to score in their last two European away games (W1 D1), and have won only two of their last 15 European away fixtures – both of those victories coming in Iceland. • Ajax have made it through to the round of 32 in all three of their previous UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns. They have featured at one stage or another in the last nine editions of the competition, meaning they are the only ever-present club in the seven seasons of the UEFA Europa League. • Celtic made it through to the round of 32 last season. It was their first successful UEFA Cup or UEFA Europa League group stage campaign after missing the cut in 2009/10 and 2011/12. Trivia and links • The journey from Glasgow to Amsterdam is just over 700km. • Celtic are one of ten domestic champions in this season's group stage, along with KF Skenderbëu (Albania), FK Qarabağ (Azerbaijan), APOEL FC (Cyprus), FC Viktoria Plzeň (Czech Republic), FC Midtjylland (Denmark), Molde FK (Norway), KKS Lech Poznań (Poland), FK Partizan (Serbia) and FC Basel 1893 (Switzerland). • Celtic midfielder Derk Boerrigter turned professional at Ajax, and then won two league titles in a second spell with the Amsterdam club before leaving for Glasgow in 2014. The coaches • De Boer has been in charge of Ajax since 2010, and in 2014 became the first coach to lead the club to four successive Dutch titles. The defender won the UEFA Cup and UEFA Champions League as an Ajax player. • De Boer played alongside his twin brother Ronald at Celtic's city rivals Rangers FC in 2004. • A defender in his native Norway, Ronny Deila was hired by Celtic in 2014 after a six-year spell in charge of Strømsgodset IF, who he led to a Norwegian Cup in 2010 and a league title in 2013. He won another title in his first season at Parkhead. • Deila spent time at the Amsterdam ArenA studying Ajax's methods during his time as Strømsgodset boss. • Deila turns 40 on 21 September, four days after the Ajax game. 2 AFC Ajax - Celtic FC Thursday 17 September 2015 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Amsterdam ArenA, Amsterdam Legend Competitions Club competitions National team competitions UCL: UEFA Champions League EURO: UEFA European Football Championship ECCC: European Champion Clubs' Cup WC: FIFA World Cup UEL: UEFA Europa League CONFCUP: FIFA Confederations Cup UCUP: UEFA Cup FRIE: Friendly internationals UCWC: UEFA Cup Winners' Cup U21FRIE: Under-21 friendly internationals SCUP: UEFA Super Cup U21: UEFA European Under-21 Championship UIC: UEFA Intertoto Cup U17: UEFA Under-17 Championship ICF: Inter-Cities Fairs Cup U16: UEFA European Under-16 Championship U19: UEFA Under-19 Championship U18: UEFA European Under-18 Championship WWC: FIFA Women's World Cup WEURO: UEFA European Women's Championship Competition stages Other abbreviations F: Final GS: Group stage (aet): After extra time pens: Penalties GS1: First group stage GS2: Second group stage No.: Number og: Own goal 3QR: Third qualifying round R1: First round ag: Match decided on away P: Penalty R2: Second round R3: Third round goals agg: Aggregate R4: Fourth round PR: Preliminary round Pld: Matches played AP: Appearances SF: Semi-finals QF: Quarter-finals Pos.: Position Comp.: Competition R16: round of 16 QR: Qualifying round Pts: Points D: Drawn R32: Round of 32 1QR: First qualifying round R: Sent off (straight red card) DoB: Date of birth 1st: first leg 2QR: Second qualifying Res.: Result ET: Extra Time round sg: Match decided by silver GA: Goals against 2nd: second leg FT: Final tournament goal t: Match decided by toss of a PO: Play-off ELITE: Elite round coin Rep: Replay 3rdPO: Third-place play-off GF: Goals for W: Won PO - FT: Play-off for Final GS-FT: Group stage – final gg: Match decided by golden Y: Booked Tournament tournament goal L: Lost Y/R: Sent off (two yellow Nat.: Nationality cards) N/A: Not applicable f: Match forfeited Statistics -: Denotes player substituted +: Denotes player introduced *: Denotes player sent off +/-: Denotes player introduced and substituted Squad list D: Disciplinary *: Misses next match if booked S: Suspended QUAL: All UEFA qualifiers UEL: Current season total UEFA Europa League appearances from the group stage onwards prior to the current matchday UEL: Total appearances in the UEFA Europa League, group stage to final only UEFA: All-time total appearances in UEFA club competition including qualifying Disclaimer: Although UEFA has taken all reasonable care that the information contained within this document is accurate at the time of publication, no representation or guarantee (including liability towards third parties), expressed or implied, is made as to its accuracy, reliability or completeness.

Form guide • Celtic fans with long memories will remember the Hoops' only previous European meeting with Romanian opponents; Charlie Nicholas scored twice as they beat FC Timişoara 2-1 at home in the 1980/81 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, but a 1-0 loss in Romania – courtesy of a Dan Păltinişanu strike – spelled an away-goals defeat for Billy McNeill's side. • Astra have lost their last three European games but have a decent record in their seven continental away fixtures (W5 D0 L2). Their 5-1 matchday one loss at Dinamo Zagreb was their worst European result to date. Trivia and links • This will be Celtic's 299th UEFA club competition game (the first 298 ended: W141 D51 L106); the return meeting in Romania will be their 300th. • Romanian sides are unbeaten in their last four games in Scotland (W3 D1). The coaches • Celtic coach Ronny Deila took charge of the Hoops in June 2014 following a successful spell at Strømsgodset IF in his native Norway.
