Previous meetings • Nevio Scala's Beşiktaş beat Yuri Semin's Lokomotiv 6-1 on aggregate in the 2000/01 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. They won 3-0 at home and 3-1 in Moscow. • Lokomotiv's record in six games against Turkish sides is W2 D1 L3 (W1 D0 L2 at home – W1 D1 L1 in Turkey). • Beşiktaş's seven encounters with Russian teams ended W3 D1 L3 (W2 D1 L1 in Istanbul – W1 D0 L2 in Russia). Form guide • Lokomotiv have won both of their Group H fixtures, making this their best start to a UEFA group stage. • Lokomotiv have successfully negotiated two of their previous three UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns. • Beşiktaş made it through last season's UEFA Europa League group stage unbeaten, then eliminated Liverpool FC on penalties before succumbing to Club Brugge KV. • The competition's new identity has played well with Beşiktaş: they failed to progress in all three of their UEFA Cup group stage campaigns, but have been successful in all three of their UEFA Europa League ones. Trivia and links • The journey from Istanbul to Moscow is around 1,750km. • Lokomotiv defender Taras Mikhalik can make his 50th UEFA club competition appearance in the Beşiktaş game. • With 40 goals, Beşiktaş striker Mario Gomez is the fourth highest-scoring German player in UEFA club competition. He needs three more to join Ulf Kirsten in third place. The coaches • A six-time Tajik international, Igor Cherevchenko lifted four Russian Cups as a Lokomotiv player between 1996 and 2001, and a fifth as coach last season. He is the first man to have won the competition as a player and a coach. He has been on the club's coaching staff since 2008. • Former Trabzonspor AŞ and Turkey goalkeeper Şenol Günes took charge at Beşiktaş in June this year. He famously steered Turkey to a bronze-medal finish at the 2002 FIFA World Cup. He has also won two Turkish Cups in the course of four spells as Trabzonspor coach. 4 FC Lokomotiv Moskva - Beşiktaş JK Thursday 22 October 2015 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Lokomotiv, Moscow Team facts FC Lokomotiv Moskva Formed: 1923 Nickname: Loko UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • None Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 2 (2004) National cup: 8 (2015) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: play-offs 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: round of 32 2010/11: play-offs 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2007/08: group stage 2006/07: first round 2005/06: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 5-0: Lokomotiv v FC BATE Borisov 25/08/99, UEFA Cup qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 1-7: FC BATE Borisov v Lokomotiv 12/08/99, UEFA Cup qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-5: Lokomotiv v FC Bayern München 26/09/95, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Heaviest away defeat 4-0: Real Madrid CF v Lokomotiv 19/09/01, UEFA Champions League group stage UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 5-0: Lokomotiv v FC BATE Borisov (see above) • Biggest away win 1-7: FC BATE Borisov v Lokomotiv (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-5: Lokomotiv v FC Bayern München (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 3-0: Juventus v Lokomotiv 15/09/93, first round first leg Beşiktaş JK Formed: 1903 Nickname: Kara Kartal (The Black Eagles) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • none Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 13 (2009) Turkish Cup: 9 (2011) 5 FC Lokomotiv Moskva - Beşiktaş JK Thursday 22 October 2015 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Lokomotiv, Moscow Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless otherwise indicated) 2014/15: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2013/14: play-offs (excluded from the group stage) 2012/13: did not participate in UEFA competition 2011/12: round of 16 2010/11: round of 32 2009/10: UEFA Champions League group stage 2008/09: first round 2007/08: UEFA Champions League group stage 2006/07: group stage 2005/06: group stage Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 5-1: Beşiktaş v Maccabi Tel-Aviv FC 15/09/11, UEFA Europa League group stage 5-1: Beşiktaş v FC Vaduz 25/08/05, UEFA Cup second qualifying round second leg 4-0: Beşiktaş JK v NK Široki Brijeg 28/08/08, UEFA Cup second qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-5: FK Sarajevo v Beşiktaş 03/10/02, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-5: Beşiktaş v FC Dynamo Kyiv 14/03/87, European Champion Clubs' Cup quarter-finals first leg • Heaviest away defeat 8-0: Liverpool FC v Beşiktaş 06/11/07, UEFA Champions League group stage UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 5-1: Beşiktaş v Maccabi Tel-Aviv FC (see above) 5-1: Beşiktaş v FC Vaduz (see above) 4-0: Beşiktaş JK v NK Široki Brijeg (see above) • Biggest away win 0-5: FK Sarajevo v Beşiktaş (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-4: Beşiktaş v FC Dynamo Kyiv 17/02/11, round of 32 first leg 0-3: Beşiktaş v Club Atlético de Madrid 15/03/12, round of 16 second leg • Heaviest away defeat 4-0: FC Dynamo Kyiv v Beşiktaş 24/02/11, round of 32 second leg 6 FC Lokomotiv Moskva - Beşiktaş JK Thursday 22 October 2015 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Stadion Lokomotiv, Moscow Squad list FC Lokomotiv Moskva Current season All-time UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
