For more detailed factual information, and indepth competition statistics, please refer to the matchweek press kit, which can be downloaded at: Match background Hamburger SV have a right to feel that they have one foot in the Round of 1 as they go into their UEFA Cup decider against NEC Nijmegen holding a 0 lead from the first leg. Piotr Trochowski, Alex Silva and Ivica Olić all scored as Martin Jol made a stylish return to his home country. The first leg was Hamburg's second taste of Dutch opposition this season. The Bundesliga highfliers lost 10 at home to UEFA Cup Group F rivals AFC Ajax in coach Jol's first European game against a team from his native Netherlands. Jol left the Netherlands in June 200 to become assistant coach at Tottenham Hotspur FC under Jacques Santini. However, he was promoted to the top job four months later and remained at the helm until October 200. He was hired by Hamburg in May 200. The first leg was the two sides' first meeting in European club competition. NEC have now played a total of 1 matches in UEFA club competition. This will be Hamburg's eleventh game against Dutch opponents. Their record from their first ten matches with Eredivisie outfits reads W D1 L. The first leg win ended a run of three successive defeats against Dutch sides for Hamburg since a 20 secondleg success over Sparta Rotterdam in the first round of the 19/ UEFA Cup. Of five European home games against Dutch sides, Hamburg have drawn two and lost three. They have gone down in their last two home fixtures against Eredivisie opposition. NEC coach Mario Been has mixed memories of facing Bundesliga opposition. He was in midfield for Feyenoord when they lost 1 on aggregate to VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach in the second round of the 19/ UEFA Cup, but scored for the Rotterdam side in a 22 draw against eventual winners Bayer 0 Leverkusen in the following season's competition. Been has fonder memories of meetings with Jol during their playing days. He scored a hattrick in Feyenoord's 0 win against Jol's ADO Den Haag in March 19 and found the net again when his side beat the same opponents with Jol once more in defence in April 19. Hamburg currently boast Dutch talent in the form of Joris Mathijsen and Romeo Castelen. Mathijsen played for Willem II and AZ Alkmaar before joining Hamburg in August 200.

2 Hamburger SV NEC Nijmegen Thursday 2 February CET (1.1 local time) Castelen played alongside NEC defender Youssef ElAkchaoui at Den Haag in 200/0 prior to his switch to Feyenoord. During his time at De Kuip, the winger shared a dressing room with NEC's Hungarian goalkeeper Gábor Babos (200 to 200) as well as defenders Mark Otten (200/0) and Lorenzo Davids (200/0). He joined Hamburg in July 200. Dutch defender ElAkchaoui is the only current NEC player with German experience, having represented 1. FC Union Berlin in the 2. Bundesliga in the 2002/0 season. This match will be Hamburg's 100th UEFA Cup fixture. NEC's victory at FC Spartak Moskva in their final groupstage game ended a run of five European away games without a win since a 10 success at SK Brann on 29 September 19. That was the club's first away match in UEFA club competition. Their 10 groupstage defeat by Ajax remains Hamburg's only loss in eleven European home matches since FC Porto came away with a 1 win in Group G of the 200/0 UEFA Champions League. Hamburg's only UEFA club competition penalty shootout to date ended in defeat by NEC's fellow Dutch outfit Sparta. The previously mentioned 20 secondleg win in Germany in the 19/ UEFA Cup levelled the tie 22 on aggregate, with the Rotterdam club prevailing on spotkicks. NEC have never been involved in a penalty shootout in UEFA club competition. NEC finished eighth in the Dutch Eredivisie last season. They won a UEFA Cup place via the domestic endofseason playoffs and progressed to the Round of 2 thanks to a thirdplace finish in Group D. Hamburg, fourth in the Bundesliga in 200/0, topped Group F. Olić and Mladen Petrić have been Hamburg's most prolific European scorers this season, with five goals each. NEC's top marksman has been Jhon van Beukering, who has found the net three times since the first round. Hamburg have no disciplinary concerns ahead of the home leg, but NEC's Lorenzo Davids, Arkadiusz Radomski and Bas Sibum are within a booking of a onematch ban. The victors will face FC Girondins de Bordeaux or Galatasaray AŞ in the Round of 1 on 12 and 1/19 March, and will play the first leg at home. Last updated ::11CET Match background 2

17 Hamburger SV NEC Nijmegen Thursday 2 February CET (1.1 local time) Competition information The UEFA Cup evolved from the InterCities Fairs Cup, and was first contested as the UEFA Cup in 191/2. Next season the UEFA Cup will be reborn as the UEFA Europa League. The new name heralds major changes to the competition, which will have a new team group stage with centralised marketing of broadcast rights, a presenting sponsor and an official matchball in addition to centralised sponsorship from the knockout stage and a new logo and visual identity. Disciplinary information: As a rule, a player who is sent off is suspended for the next match in a UEFA club competition. The Control and Disciplinary Body is entitled to augment this punishment. In the case of repeated cautions, a player is suspended for one match after three cautions in three different matches, as well as following any subsequent oddnumbered caution (fifth, seventh, ninth, etc). Single yellow cards and pending suspensions are always carried forward either to the next stage of the competition or to another club competition in the current season. Locallytrained players rule: In February 200, UEFA announced the 'A' list that teams submit for UEFA club competitions will continue to be limited to 2 players, and from the 200/09 season at least eight places are reserved for players trained by the club's own football academy of which half can be players trained by other clubs from within the same association of the said club. The 'B' list also continues to exist involving an unlimited number of Under players who have been at the club for any uninterrupted period of two years since their 1th birthday. A clubtrained player is defined as a player who has been registered for a minimum of three seasons with the club between the age of 1 and, whereas an associationtrained player is one who has been registered for at least three seasons by the club or by other clubs affiliated to the same association between the age of 1 and. Away goals rule: For matches played under the cup (knockout) system, the team which scores the greater aggregate of goals in the two matches qualifies for the next round. If the two teams involved in a tie score the same number of goals over the two legs, the team which scores more away goals qualifies for the next stage. If this procedure does not produce a result, i.e, if the two teams score the same number of goals at home and away, extra time of two periods of 1 minutes shall be played at the end of the second leg. If during extra time, both teams score the same number of goals, away goals count double (i.e. the visiting club qualifies). If no goals are scored during extra time, penalty kicks determine which team qualifies. Player registration: UEFA regulations state that for all UEFA Cup matches from the start of the Round of 2, a club may register a maximum of three new eligible players within their squad of 2 for the remaining matches in the current competition. One player from the above quota of three who has played UEFA club competition matches for another competing club in the current season may exceptionally be registered, provided that the player has not been fielded by another club in the UEFA Cup this season or by a club that has transferred from the UEFA Champions League to the UEFA Cup following the group stage.
