LONDON (AP) -Atletico Bilbao coach Marcelo Bielsa will be trying to get his team back to its winning form against Paris Saint-Germain in the Europa League on Thursday, and Irish club Shamrock Rovers will play its first competitive match in England in more than 50 years at Tottenham.

Both Rovers and Spurs are winless in Group A, while Bilbao's lone victory in seven games under Bielsa this season was a 3-1 victory over Slovan Bratislava to open Group F. PSG is at the top of the French standings and unbeaten in 10 matches, with eight victories.

Also, Schalke coach Huub Stevens will make his debut against Maccabi Haifa in Group J. The German club is waiting to see if striker Raul Gonzalez, who hurt his ankle in training this week, will be able to play.
