Porto, by contrast, are embarking on their 18th campaign, although under a coach who is new to the tournament, Paulo Fonseca. Previous meetings • Porto beat Christoph Daum's Austria in the 2002/03 UEFA Cup second round en route to winning the trophy under José Mourinho. Derlei struck the only goal of the first leg in Vienna after 70 minutes and scored again in the return, making it 2-0 with four minutes remaining to add to Hélder Postiga's first-half goal. • The lineups on 31 October 2002 at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion were: Austria Wien: Mandl, Dospel, Hiden (Helstad 75), Ratajczyk, Scharner, Flögel, Hašek, Janočko, Panis (Akoto 40), Wagner, Gilewicz (Rushfeldt 84). Porto: Baía, Paulo Ferreira, Jorge Costa, Pedro Emanuel, Valente, Costinha, Maniche, Deco (Ricardo Carvalho 81), Clayton (Tiago 71), Derlei, Postiga (Jankauskas 79). Match background • Nenad Bjelica's Austria reached the group stage by overcoming Iceland's FH Hafnarfjördur 1-0 on aggregate in the third qualifying round before surviving a test of nerve against GNK Dinamo Zagreb in the play-offs. After a 2-0 first-leg win in Croatia, they trailed 3-1 at home until Roman Kienast's 82nd-minute goal secured a 4-3 aggregate success. • Austria have never got the better of Portuguese opponents. Besides their 2002 defeat by Porto they twice lost two- legged ties against SL Benfica – in the 1961/62 European Cup first round and 2006/07 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round – and also fell short against CD Nacional in the 2009/10 UEFA Europa League group stage, drawing 1-1 at home and losing 5-1 in Funchal. • Tomáš Jun and Manuel Ortlechner appeared in both games against Nacional, with Markus Suttner playing in the away loss. Austria's overall home record against Portuguese opponents is three draws (all 1-1) and one defeat. • Porto won once on their travels in last term's UEFA Champions League – 2-0 away to the same Dinamo side that Austria beat in the play-offs last month. They also drew at FC Dynamo Kyiv (0-0) but then suffered defeats at Paris Saint-Germain FC (1-2) and Málaga CF (0-2), the latter result leading to their elimination in the last 16. • Porto's only other trip to Vienna brought a 3-1 win at SK Rapid Wien on a snowy night in December 2010 when a Falcao hat-trick (42, 86, 88) secured a 3-1 victory for André Villas-Boas's side, which featured Helton, Jorge Fucile, Nicolás Otamendi, Fernando and Silvestre Varela. • Porto, who went on to win the 2010/11 UEFA Europa League, had begun their campaign with a 3-0 home win against Rapid in which Rolando (26), Falcao (65) and Rúben Micael (77) got the goals. Team ties • Marat Izmailov was in the FC Lokomotiv Moskva team beaten 1-0 at home by Rapid Wien in the 2005/06 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, with Kienast an unused substitute for the visitors. • Kienast was in the Austria side beaten 6-3 by Portugal in the 2003 UEFA European Under-19 Championship semi- finals. • Steven Defour played in Austria with R. Standard de Liège when they held FC Salzburg 0-0 to complete a 3-2 aggregate victory in the 2009/10 UEFA Europa League round of 32. • Defour helped Belgium win 2-0 against Austria in Vienna in a UEFA EURO 2012 qualifier in March 2011, which Ortlechner watched from the home bench. 4 FK Austria Wien - FC Porto Wednesday 18 September 2013 - 20.45CET, (20.45 local time) Match press kit Ernst-Happel-Stadion, Vienna Match facts Austria Wien UEFA milestones and competition statistics • This campaign will be the club's first in the group stage. • Five separate scorers struck Austria's five goals in qualifying: Roman Kienast, Marin Leovac, Daniel Royer, Florian Mader and Marko Stanković. • Tomáš Jun is the only Austria Wien player with UEFA Champions League experience having appeared 12 times for AC Sparta Praha in 2003/04 and 2004/05. • Austria have scored 95 goals in the European Champion Clubs' Cup.

International duty • Five Austria Wien players were on senior duty during the international break: Philipp Hosiner, Manuel Ortlechner, Heinz Lindner, Markus Suttner (Austria) and James Holland (Australia). • None of the Austrian quartet made it off the bench during their country's FIFA World Cup qualifying matches against Germany and the Republic of Ireland, while Holland suffered the same fate in Australia's 6-0 loss to Brazil. General information • Austria Wien's last three matches have all been at home and they have not won any, drawing one and suffering 3-2 losses to GNK Dinamo Zagreb and, on Saturday, SV Grödig. • The Violets won the 2012/13 Austrian Bundesliga with a record points total, their tally of 82 surpassing the previous high of 81 set by SK Sturm Graz in 1997/98. • Hosiner won Austria's golden boot last season with 32 goals in 36 games and has scored three in seven league outings this season. • Alexander Gorgon has been unavailable since suffering a major leg injury in mid-August. Porto UEFA milestones and competition statistics • Like FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF, Porto are embarking on their 18th UEFA Champions League campaign. Only Manchester United FC (19) have appeared more. • Paulo Fonseca is set for his first taste of European football having signed a two-year contract with Porto in June after guiding FC Paços de Ferreira to a third-placed finish, the club's best ever position. • The 2-0 defeat at Málaga CF which sealed their exit from last season's round of 16 was the club's 100th loss in UEFA competition.
