Wednesday August.CET (. local time) Match background reached the UEFA Champions eague round of in /, but have their work cut out to make it through to this season's group stage against a fearless side. The Danish side were caught cold in the first leg as Plzeň ran out victors in Copenhagen, Sölvi Ottesen's own goal giving them a ndminute advantage increased by Václav Pilař. Although Ottesen pulled one back, substitute Martin Fillo added a fine third to complete a memorable win for the Czech side. Previous meetings The teams had never met in UEFA competition before the first leg, while Plzeň had not previously played Danish opponents. FCK have been paired with Czech sides on three previous occasions in Europe. Kjøbenhavns BK, one of the clubs that merged to form FCK in, lost on aggregate to FC Baník Ostrava in the / UEFA Cup first round, while FCK lost over two legs to FC Hradec Králové in the first round of the / UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. Thus FCK have lost both of their previous twolegged ties against Czech sides, though in the / UEFA Europa eague group stage they did beat AC Sparta Praha at home and in Prague, Dame N'Doye scoring three of those goals. Match background The first leg was the first time FCK had lost or even conceded a goal since losing at home against Chelsea FC in last season's UEFA Champions eague round of ; of the subsequent three games they drew one and won two. Plzeň are unbeaten in three European home games under Pavel Vrba having lost only their first continental fixture. They went down to FC Bayern München in the first round of the / UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. Prior to their win at Shamrock Rovers FC in this season's UEFA Champions eague third qualifying round, which completed a aggregate success, København had gone three games without scoring a goal on their European travels. FCK have lost the first leg at home in UEFA competition on nine previous occasions and lost eight of those ties, most recently against Chelsea last season. Their sole win came in the / UEFA Cup preliminary round against FC Jazz ( home, away). The ions are aiming to build on last season's achievement of becoming the first Danish club to qualify for the round of, where they lost on aggregate to Chelsea. Their previous incursion came in /, when they collected seven points from games against Celtic FC, Manchester United FC and S Benfica but still finished bottom of their group. København also participated in the / edition, eliminating infield FC but succumbing over two legs to eventual winners AC Milan in the second round. Plzeň are by far the most inexperienced side in the UEFA Champions eague playoffs; this is only their third season in Europe and they have never appeared in the group stage of a UEFA club competition. The Czech title holders have impressed in their maiden UEFA Champions eague campaign, surpassing their second qualifying round success against FC Pyunik (agg: ) by eliminating group stage regulars Rosenborg BK in the following round (agg: ). They have won all five of their UEFA Champions eague qualifying fixtures to date. Team ties København coach Roland Nilsson faced Czech opponents with IFK Göteborg at the start of his playing career. The former Sweden defender's team came up against SK Sigma Olomouc in the / UEFA Cup, drawing away and winning at home. Plzeň's midfielder Pavel Horváth was in the Sparta side that drew home and away against Odense BK in the / UEFA Cup first round, then won on penalties, Horváth scoring the first of them. ast updated // ::CET Match background
