Last week in Monaco the UEFA Europa League draw took place. We have been drawn in Group E alongside Spaniards Villarreal, Czech side Viktoria Plzen and Dinamo Minsk of Belarus. We are set to face each of the three clubs for the first time in a competitive fixture.

Trainer Zoran Barisic: "It’s an really super challenge: Villarreal is a top European club, Plzen made a big impression two years ago in the Champions League and Minsk knocked Salzburg out this week. We’re looking forward to it!"

Sporting Director Andreas Müller: "It's an attractive group - and I think we measure up to the other teams!"

Club Services Manager Andy Marek: "We'll decide on our pre-sale tickets, conditions and prices by Saturday afternoon for the home games. We’re going to offer the chance to purchase a mini-season ticket again."
