Form guide • Slovan have won three of their four home games against Serie A opponents. • Slovan's 5-0 loss at BSC Young Boys matched their worst previous result in this competition, a 5-0 defeat by AFC Ajax in the 2009/10 play-offs. • Slovan are unbeaten in five European home games (W3 D2); Napoli are without a win in four continental away fixtures (D1 L3). Trivia and links • Hamšík started his career with Slovan, leaving the club at the age of 17 to join Brescia Calcio before moving on to his current side in 2007. • Slovan midfielder Richard Lásik has played in Italy with Brescia, scoring one goal in 43 Serie B games between 2012 and 2014. • Slovan's Róbert Vittek struck a goal in each half against an Italy side featuring Napoli's Christian Maggio as Slovakia eliminated the Azzurri with a 3-2 defeat in the 2010 FIFA World Cup finals group stage. • Slovan are the only Slovakian side to have won a major European trophy – the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup in 1968/69 – and seven of their players featured in Czechoslovakia's victorious 1976 UEFA European Championship squad. • Slovan's only previous group stage campaign was in 2011/12, when they picked up just one point from six games. The coaches • Slovan coach František Straka spent the best years of his playing career with AC Sparta Praha and VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach, picking up 35 caps for Czechoslovakia along the way. The former defender's coaching adventures include spells in Austria, Greece, Australia and Poland, as well as a one-match stint as Czech national team boss. • Napoli coach since May 2013, Rafael Benítez won two Spanish titles and the 2003/04 UEFA Cup with Valencia CF, the 2004/05 UEFA Champions League with Liverpool FC and the 2012/13 UEFA Europa League with Chelsea FC. The Spaniard lifted the Coppa Italia in his first Napoli campaign. 3 ŠK Slovan Bratislava - SSC Napoli Thursday 2 October 2014 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Štadión Pasienky, Bratislava Team facts ŠK Slovan Bratislava Formed: 1919 Nickname: Belasí (Sky blues) UEFA club competition honours • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1): 1969 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 20 (2014) Slovakian Cup: 18 (2013) Ten-year record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2013/14: UEFA Champions League second qualifying round 2012/13: second qualifying round 2011/12: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2010/11: play-offs 2009/10: play-offs (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA competition 2007/08: UEFA Intertoto Cup second round 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 Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 8-1: Slovan v HPS Helsinki 19/10/63, European Cup Winners' Cup preliminary round second leg • Biggest away win 0-4: Cwmbran Town FC v Slovan 09/08/01, UEFA Cup qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Slovan v GNK Dinamo Zagreb 14/09/00, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: Tottenham Hotspur FC v Slovan 14/03/63, European Cup Winners' Cup quarter-finals second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 6-0: Slovan v FK Vojvodina 13/09/72, first round first leg • Biggest away win 0-4: Cwmbran Town FC v Slovan (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Slovan v GNK Dinamo Zagreb (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: BSC Young Boys v Slovan 18/09/14, group stage 5-0: AFC Ajax v Slovan 20/08/09, play-offs first leg SSC Napoli Formed: 1926 Nickname: Partenopei (a reference to Parthenope, one of the Sirens of Greek mythology) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup (1): 1989 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) 4 ŠK Slovan Bratislava - SSC Napoli Thursday 2 October 2014 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Štadión Pasienky, Bratislava League title: 2 (1990) Italian Cup: 5 (2014) Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2013/14: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2012/13: round of 32 2011/12: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2010/11: round of 32 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: first round (having qualified as UEFA Intertoto Cup winners) 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2004/05: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 5-0: Napoli v KF Vllaznia 28/08/08, UEFA Cup second qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 1-5: Valencia CF v Napoli 16/09/92, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Napoli v FC Viktoria Plzeň 14/02/13, UEFA Europa League round of 32 first leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: SV Werder Bremen v Napoli 06/12/89, UEFA Cup third round second leg UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 5-0: Napoli v KF Vllaznia (see above) • Biggest away win 1-5: Valencia CF v Napoli (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Napoli v FC Viktoria Plzeň (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: SV Werder Bremen v Napoli (see above) 5 ŠK Slovan Bratislava - SSC Napoli Thursday 2 October 2014 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Štadión Pasienky, Bratislava Squad list ŠK Slovan Bratislava Current season All-time UCL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
