Previous meetings • The sides are meeting for the first time and it is Osmanlıspor's first encounter with Spanish opposition. • Villarreal are yet to lose in four matches against Turkish teams (W2 D2 – W1 D1 in Turkey). Form guide • Osmanlıspor have won all four of their European home games this season without conceding. • This is Osmanlıspor's first UEFA group stage campaign; they previously competed in Europe under the name Ankaraspor. • Villarreal are without a win in three European away fixtures (D1 L2). • UEFA Europa League semi-finalists last term, the Yellow Submarine have made it through to the round of 32 in all six of their previous UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage forays. Links and trivia • The journey from Villarreal to Ankara is around 2,800km. • On matchday two, Villarreal's Bruno Soriano became the first player to reach 40 UEFA Europa League appearances for a single club. He had previously shared the record with Sporting CP goalkeeper Rui Patrício. • Villarreal's Cédric Bakambu knows Turkish football from his time at Bursaspor from 2014–15. • Osmanlıspor's Pierre Webó (Osasuna, Legánes, Mallorca), Tiago Pinto (Deportivo La Coruña, Santander) and Raul Rusescu (Sevilla) all have Spanish league experience. • Former team-mates: Cheick Diabaté (Osmanlıspor) & Alfred N'Diaye (Villarreal) – Nancy, 2009–10 Raul Rusescu (Osmalıspor) & Denis Cheryshev (Villarreal) – Sevilla, 2013–14 Raul Rusescu (Osmalıspor) & Mariano Barbosa (Villarreal) – Sevilla, 2014–15 • Villarreal's Nicola Sansone joined the youth department at Bayern München in 2002, the same year Osmanlıspor's Erdal Kılıçaslan made the step up to Bayern's reserve team. Both players are from Munich. The coaches • Hired in July 2015, Mustafa Akçay earned Osmanlıspor a European spot with a fifth-placed finish last term. He had occupied the helm at several low-profile sides in Turkey before leading Trabzonspor through the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League group stage. • Akçay's run of 19 UEFA club competition games unbeaten – 12 with Trabzonspor and seven with Osmanlıspor – ended with matchday two's 2-1 loss at Zürich. • Fran Escribá took charge of Villarreal in August. Originally a playing trainee at Valencia, he had coached the Mestalla club's youth teams and had worked as Quique Sánchez Flores's assistant at Valencia, Getafe, Benfica and Atlético Madrid before going it alone with Elche and – last term – Getafe. 3 Osmanlıspor - Villarreal CF Thursday 20 October 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Osmanlı Stadı, Ankara Team facts Osmanlıspor Formed: 1978 (formerly Ankaraspor) Nickname: Osmanlılar (The Ottomans) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • none Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) None Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2015/16: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA club competition 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 5-0: Osmanlıspor v FC Zimbru Chisinau 21/07/16, UEFA Europa League second qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 0-2: Nõmme Kalju FC v Osmanlıspor 04/08/16, UEFA Europa League third qualifying round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Osmanlıspor v MFK Dubnica 02/07/05, UEFA Intertoto Cup second round first leg • Heaviest away defeat 2-1: Zürich v Osmanlıspor 29/09/16, UEFA Europa League group stage UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 5-0: Osmanlıspor v FC Zimbru Chisinau (see above) • Biggest away win 0-2: Nõmme Kalju FC v Osmanlıspor (see above) • Heaviest home defeat N/A • Heaviest away defeat 2-1: Zürich v Osmanlıspor (see above) Villarreal CF Formed: 1923 Nickname: El Submarino Amarillo (The Yellow Submarine) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Intertoto Cup (2): 2003, 2004 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) None Ten-year European record (UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League unless indicated otherwise) 2015/16: semi-finals 2014/15: round of 16 4 Osmanlıspor - Villarreal CF Thursday 20 October 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Osmanlı Stadı, Ankara 2013/14: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: UEFA Champions League group stage 2010/11: semi-finals 2009/10: round of 32 2008/09: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2007/08: round of 32 2006/07: UEFA Intertoto Cup third round Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 6-1: Villarreal v NAC Breda 27/08/09, UEFA Europa League play-off second leg 5-0: Villarreal v FC Dnepr Mogilev 19/08/10, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg • Biggest away win 0-3 three times, most recently v FC Astana 21/08/14, UEFA Europa League play-off first leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Villarreal v Manchester City FC 02/11/11, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Porto v Villarreal 28/04/11, UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 6-1: Villarreal v NAC Breda (see above) 5-0: Villarreal v FC Dnepr Mogilev (see above) • Biggest away win 0-3: FC Astana v Villarreal (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Villarreal v Sevilla FC 12/03/15, round of 16 first leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-1: FC Porto v Villarreal (see above) 5 Osmanlıspor - Villarreal CF Thursday 20 October 2016 - 19.00CET (20.00 local time) Match press kit Osmanlı Stadı, Ankara Squad list Osmanlıspor Current season All-time QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
