Previous meetings • This is the clubs' first meeting in UEFA competition. • Astra's only previous experience of Austrian opposition was a disappointing one, the Romanian side losing 5-1 away and 2-1 at home to Salzburg in the 2014/15 group stage. • Austria's record in nine matches against Romanian teams is W3 D3 L3 (D2 L2 away). Form guide • Astra are unbeaten in their last seven European home games (W3 D4). • Astra were eliminated at the end of their only previous UEFA Europa League group stage campaign in 2014/15. • Austria have won all three of their European away fixtures this season. • Austria have failed to progress in their last four UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns since making it to the last eight in 2004/05. Links and trivia • The journey from Vienna to Giurgiu is around 900km. The coaches • Marius Șumudică steered Astra to a maiden Romanian title in 2015/16, having previously won the league as a player with Rapid Bucureşti in 1998/99. He played in Portugal, Hungary and Cyprus as a striker, and has coached in Greece and the United Arab Emirates. • A four-time Bundesliga winner as a Bayern München midfielder, Thorsten Fink has been in charge at Austria Wien since 2015. Twice a league champion in Switzerland as Basel coach between 2009 and 2011, he subsequently occupied the helm at Hamburg and APOEL. 4 FC Astra Giurgiu - FK Austria Wien Thursday 15 September 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Arena Națională, Bucharest Team facts FC Astra Giurgiu Formed: 1921 Nickname: Black Devils (Dracii Negri) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • none Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 1 (2016) Romanian Cup: 1 (2014) Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2015/16: play-offs 2014/15: group stage 2013/14: play-offs 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2006/07: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 3-0: Astra v FC Slovan Liberec 31/07/14, UEFA Europa League third qualifying round first leg • Biggest away win 1-3: FK AŠ Trenčín v Astra 01/08/13, UEFA Europa League third qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-2: Astra v FC Salzburg 02/10/14, UEFA Europa League group stage 0-1: Astra v Olympique Lyonnais 28/08/14, UEFA Europa League play-off second leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Salzburg v Astra 11/12/14, UEFA Europa League group stage 5-1: GNK Dinamo Zagreb v Astra 18/09/14, UEFA Europa League group stage UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League • Biggest home win 3-0: Astra v FC Slovan Liberec (see above) • Biggest away win 1-3: FK AŠ Trenčín v Astra (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-2: Astra v FC Salzburg (see above) 0-1: Astra v Olympique Lyonnais (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Salzburg v Astra (see above) 5-1: GNK Dinamo Zagreb v Astra (see above) FK Austria Wien Formed: 1911 Nickname: Die Veilchen (The Violets) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) 5 FC Astra Giurgiu - FK Austria Wien Thursday 15 September 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Arena Națională, Bucharest • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup: (1978) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 24 (2013) Austrian Cup: 27 (2009) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2015/16: did not take part in UEFA competition 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA competition 2013/14: UEFA Champions League group stage 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA competition 2011/12: group stage 2010/11: play-offs 2009/10: group stage 2008/09: first round 2007/08: group stage 2006/07: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 10-0: Austria Wien v FC Aris Bonnevoie 28/09/83, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-5: FC Aris Bonnevoie v Austria Wien 14/09/83, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-5: Austria Wien v MKS Odra Wodzisław Śląski 19/07/97, UEFA Intertoto Cup group stage 0-4: Austria Wien v Juventus 24/10/90, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup second round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: FK Beroe Stara Zagora v Austria Wien 13/09/72, UEFA Cup first round first leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 10-0: Austria Wien v FC Aris Bonnevoie (see above) • Biggest away win 0-5: FC Aris Bonnevoie v Austria Wien (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-4: Austria Wien v SV Zulte Waregem 19/10/06, group stage 0-3: Austria Wien v Athletic Club 03/12/09, group stage • Heaviest away defeat 7-0: FK Beroe Stara Zagora v Austria Wien (see above) 6 FC Astra Giurgiu - FK Austria Wien Thursday 15 September 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Arena Națională, Bucharest Squad list FC Astra Giurgiu Current season All-time UCL QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
