Comments: Edouard's first European goal. Competitive debut for Lewis Morgan. Scarce programme.

Alashkert don't issue a match programme but this programme is supposed to be a VIP issue available free within the VIP boxes. This is unsubstatiated and unlikely to be true, However, some reputable ebay sellars agree. On the negative side, the programme is very similar to the style of pirate programmes being sold from Eastern Europe on ebay.

How UEFA Coefficients works
Clubs' coefficients are now determined EITHER by the sum of all points won in the previous five years in UEFA competitions OR by the association coefficient over the same period – WHICHEVER IS THE HIGHER (under a new system introduced for 2018/19 onwards). See Celtic's coef (50, down 3 places since the start of the season) and the UEFA points system for working it out.
