Match background • Wales have had the better of their five meetings with Cyprus, recording three victories to their opponents' two. They have won their only two preceding home fixtures against Cyprus – both qualifiers – by two-goal margins. • Cyprus kicked off Group B with a shock 2-1 away triumph against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Prior to that match, they had not scored in nine outings (competitive and friendly). That result ended a run of 16 games without a competitive away victory (D4 L12) since a 1-0 success in San Marino on 22 August 2007. • Wales manager Chris Coleman played in his nation's sole win in Cyprus, 1-0 in FIFA World Cup qualifying on 14 October 1992. • Wales have won all three of the countries' encounters in UEFA age-group competitions. • The only past meetings between the nations' clubs in UEFA competition came in the 1970/71 season when Cardiff City FC beat Pezoporikos FC 8-0 at home and drew the return leg 0-0 in Larnaca. 3 Wales - Cyprus Monday 13 October 2014 - 20.45CET (19.45 local time) Match press kit Cardiff City Stadium, Cardiff Squad list Wales Current season Overall Qual.

Charalambos Christodoulou Date of birth: 17 October 1967 Nationality: Cypriot Playing career: Doxa Katokopia FC, Olympiakos Nicosia FC, AEK Larnaca FC Coaching career: Doxa Katokopia FC, Olympiakos Nicosia FC, AEL Limassol FC, Anorthosis Famagusta FC • Had a modest career as a defensive midfielder in Cyprus, playing for second-tier Doxa between 1985 and 1989, before a five-year stint with Olympiakos where he reached the 1991 Cypriot Cup final. He finished his playing days with a solitary season at Larnaca. • Moved into coaching aged 39 and immediately steered Doxa to promotion to the top flight, where they stayed throughout Christodoulou's tenure. Earned a reputation for tactical astuteness and an eye for talent in the Portuguese lower leagues. • Guided Olympiakos to sixth in the First Division during his only campaign at the helm. Was rewarded with a switch to AEL, whom he led to a first Cypriot league title since 1968.

    UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE - 2016/17 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS GSP - Nicosia Thursday 8 December 2016 19.00CET (20.00 local time) APOEL FC Group B - Matchday 6 Olympiacos FC Last updated 07/12/2016 03:42CET Match background 2 Legend 3 1 APOEL FC - Olympiacos FC Thursday 8 December 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit GSP, Nicosia Match background APOEL and Olympiacos have both already qualified, but they meet in Cyprus with top spot in Group B still to play for. • Both teams are through; APOEL will clinch first place with a draw, while Olympiacos require victory to finish at the summit. Previous meetings • APOEL secured a shock 1-0 win at Olympiacos when the sides met for the first time in UEFA competition on matchday two. • APOEL's 11 fixtures against Greek teams have ended W5 D3 L3 (W3 D1 L1 at home). • Olympiacos's record in seven matches against clubs from Cyprus is W4 D1 L2 (W2 D0 L1 in Cyprus). Form guide • APOEL are unbeaten in five European home games this season (W4 D1). With nine points from five matchdays, APOEL have equalled their best record in a UEFA group stage, having also taken nine points in winning their UEFA Champions League section in 2011/12. • But for that loss to APOEL, Olympiacos would be unbeaten in Group B (W2 D2); their last two games in the section both ended 1-1. • APOEL confirmed their round of 32 place on matchday five, having failed to get through in their two previous UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns.
