Previous meetings • The sides are meeting for the first time and this is Kuban's first encounter with Spanish opponents. • Valencia's eight games against Russian teams stand at W6 D1 L1 (W4 D0 L0 in Spain – W2 D1 L1 in Russia). They have won their last four fixtures against Russian sides without conceding. Match background • Kuban lost 2-0 at FC St Gallen in their first group stage game – it was their first defeat in European club competition, after having begun their maiden continental campaign with four straight wins, eliminating Motherwell FC and then Feyenoord to make it to the group stage. • Kuban boast a 100% home record in Europe, having won both of their previous UEFA Europa League fixtures in Krasnodar 1-0. • Valencia made it through to the knockout phase in both of their previous group stage attempts in this competition – in 2008/09 and 2009/10. They have not had a European season that has been over by Christmas since 2007/08, when they finished bottom of their UEFA Champions League group. • Valencia lost 3-0 at home to Swansea City AFC in their opening Group A game, but come to Russia unbeaten in their last three European away games (W2 D1). Team facts • Kuban defender Ángel Dealbert will be up against a host of former team-mates, having played for Valencia from 2009-12; the club finished third in the Liga in all three of his seasons at Mestalla. • Valencia defender Antonio Barragán and Kuban striker Djibril Cissé were together at Liverpool FC in the 2005/06 season. • Valencia defender João Pereira and forward Hélder Postiga played alongside Kuban defender Xandão at Sporting Clube de Portugal in 2011/12, though Hélder Postiga left for Real Zaragoza CF in September 2011. • Kuban's Ghanaian midfielder Mohammed Rabiu played on loan in Spain's second division with Club Gimnàstic de Tarragona and Xerez CD. • Kuban's Senegalese forward Ibrahima Baldé also played at that level with CD Numancia and experienced the top division with Club Atlético de Madrid and CA Osasuna. Coach information • Kuban coach since August 2013, Dorinel Munteanu was capped a record 134 times for Romania and won titles with FC Dinamo Bucureşti and FC Steaua Bucureşti. He spent the best years of his playing career as a midfielder in Belgium and Germany. As a coach, he led FC Oţelul Galaţi to a shock Romanian title success in 2010/11 and then guided them into the 2011/12 UEFA Champions League group stage. • Serbian coach Miroslav Djukić returned in June 2013 to the club he served as a sweeper from 1997-2003; two UEFA Champions League finals and the 2001/02 title with Valencia represented the pinnacles of his long playing career in Spain. As a coach, he led FK Partizan and Serbia as well as Belgium's R. Excelsior Mouscron before returning to Spain to take charge of Hércules CF and then Real Valladolid CF. 3 FC Kuban Krasnodar - Valencia CF Thursday 3 October 2013 - 18.00CET, (20.00 local time) Match press kit Kuban, Krasnodar Team facts FC Kuban Krasnodar Formed: 1928 Nickname: Zhelto-zeleniye (The Yellow-Greens) UEFA club competition honours • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) None Ten-year record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA competition 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA competition 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA competition 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA competition 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA competition 2004/05: did not take part in UEFA competition 2003/04: did not take part in UEFA competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 1-0: Kuban v Feyenoord 22/08/13, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg 1-0: Kuban v Motherwell FC 08/08/13, UEFA Europa League third qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-2: Motherwell FC v Kuban 01/08/13, UEFA Europa League third qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-2: Kuban v Valencia CF 03/10/13, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 2-0: FC St Gallen v Kuban 19/09/13, UEFA Europa League group stage UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 1-0: Kuban v Feyenoord (see above) 1-0: Kuban v Motherwell FC (see above) • Biggest away win 0-2: Motherwell FC v Kuban (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-2: Kuban v Valencia CF (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 2-0: FC St Gallen v Kuban (see above) Valencia CF Formed: 1919 Nickname: Blanquinegros (White and Blacks) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • European Champion Clubs' Cup: (2000), (2001) • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1): 1980 • UEFA Cup (1): 2004 • UEFA Super Cup (2): 1980, 2004 4 FC Kuban Krasnodar - Valencia CF Thursday 3 October 2013 - 18.00CET, (20.00 local time) Match press kit Kuban, Krasnodar • UEFA Intertoto Cup (1): 1998 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 6 (2004) Spanish Cup: 7 (2008) Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2012/13: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2011/12: semi-finals (having transferred from the UEFA Champions League group stage) 2010/11: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2009/10: quarter-finals 2008/09: round of 32 2007/08: UEFA Champions League group stage 2006/07: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2005/06: UEFA Intertoto Cup final matches 2004/05: round of 32 (having transferred from the UEFA Champions League group stage) 2003/04: winners 2002/03: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 7-0: Valencia v KRC Genk 23/11/11, UEFA Champions League group stage • Biggest away win 0-5: SK Sturm Graz v Valencia 07/03/01, UEFA Champions League second group stage • Heaviest home defeat 1-5 twice, most recently v FC Internazionale Milano 20/10/04, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: Karlsruher SC v Valencia 02/11/93, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 6-1: Valencia v Legia Warszawa 01/11/01, second round second leg 5-0: Valencia v FC Chernomorets Krasnodarskiy Kray 27/09/01, first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-4 twice, most recently v Rosenborg BK 27/11/08, group stage • Heaviest home defeat 1-5: Valencia v SSC Napoli 16/09/92, first round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: Karlsruher SC v Valencia (see above) 5 FC Kuban Krasnodar - Valencia CF Thursday 3 October 2013 - 18.00CET, (20.00 local time) Match press kit Kuban, Krasnodar Squad list FC Kuban Krasnodar Current season All-time QUAL Tournament League Tournament UEFA No. Player Nat.
