That 4-1 win, achieved under newly appointed interim coach Pablo García, lifted PAOK to five points, two behind leaders Granada, while leaving PSV stuck on three, two more than bottom-placed Omonoia. Previous meetings • The clubs have been paired together twice before, in back-to-back UEFA Cup campaigns (2000/01 and 2001/02), and on each occasion in the third round. PSV won three of the four matches, posting comfortable victories in Eindhoven (3-0 and 4-1 respectively), as well as both ties. • Although heavily beaten last time out in Salonika, PSV have won eight of their 13 UEFA encounters with Greek clubs (D1 L4). They remain undefeated at home (W5 D1), though the draw came in the most recent encounter, 1-1 against Panathinaikos in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League group stage. • PAOK's win on Matchday 3 was only their second victory in 17 matches against Dutch opposition (D8 L7). They have yet to win in eight visits to the Netherlands, although they had drawn four games in a row there until Ajax defeated them 3-2 in Amsterdam in the second leg of last season's UEFA Champions League third qualifying round tie to claim a 5-4 aggregate win. Dutch midfielder Diego Biseswar scored both of PAOK's goals on returning to the city of his birth. Form guide PSV • The 1988 European champions finished fourth in the curtailed 2019/20 Dutch Eredivisie, earning a place in the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round. Under their new German coach Roger Schmidt they won away to both Mura (5-1) and Rosenborg (2-0) this season to secure an eighth group stage berth. • Last season, having been defeated by Basel on away goals in the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round (3-2 h, 1-2 a), PSV advanced into the UEFA Europa League group stage but went no further, eliminated after successive heavy away defeats at LASK (1-4) and Sporting CP (0-4). The 2010/11 quarter-finalists have now failed to progress from their group in four of the last five attempts. • PSV's home record in the UEFA Europa League group stage is W10 D7 L5, though the five defeats, including 1-2 against Granada on Matchday 1, have all come in the last 11 matches, only three of which they have won. PAOK • PAOK finished distant runners-up to Olympiacos in the 2019/20 Greek Superleague in defence of their title, but they harboured high hopes of reaching the UEFA Champions League group stage for the first time this season when they knocked out Beşiktaş (3-1 h) and Benfica (2-1 h) in their first two qualifying ties, only to lose 2-1 in both legs of their play-off against Krasnodar. • That means PAOK have extended their record of having participated in every season of the UEFA Europa League to a 12th successive year. Last season they lost on away goals to Slovan Bratislava in the play-offs (0-1 a, 3-2 h), but they are back in the group stage this term for the eighth time. Four of their previous seven participations have extended into the knockout phase but never beyond the round of 32. Their most recent group campaign, in 2018/19, was their poorest yet as they lost five of their six games and finished bottom of a group headed by eventual winners Chelsea. • PAOK boast a W9 D7 L6 record from their 22 away matches in the UEFA Europa League group stage, though there have been no wins in the last three, two defeats preceding their Matchday 2 goalless draw at Granada. Links and trivia • Biseswar began his senior career with Feyenoord, his time there from 2005 to 2012 incorporating loan spells at Heracles (2006/07) and De Graafschap (2008).
