Previous meetings • The teams were paired together for the first time in the 2017/18 group stage, when home sides held the upper hand. • City were 2-0 winners in Manchester on matchday two, Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling scoring at the start and end of the second half to secure the points. • Josep Guardiola's side travelled to Ukraine for their final fixture with a place in the round of 16 already assured, but looking to make it six wins out of six in the section. Instead Shakhtar secured their own place in the knockout stages with a 2-1 victory, goals from Bernard and Ismaily proving enough despite Sergio Agüero's added-time penalty. Form guide Shakhtar • The Ukrainian club's first two games both finished 2-2, Shakhtar twice coming from behind to draw with Hoffenheim on matchday one – the latter's UEFA Champions League debut – before letting slip a two-goal lead at Lyon. • Shakhtar qualified as winners of the Ukrainian league, claiming the title for the 11th time in 2017/18, when they completed a domestic double for the second season in succession. • Quarter-finalists in 2010/11, Shakhtar reached the last 16 of the 2017/18 UEFA Champions League, losing to Roma on away goals (2-1 home, 1-0 away). • Shakhtar won all four of their home matches in last season's competition, beating Napoli, Feyenoord and City in the group stage. • The Donetsk club have lost only one of their last 15 home matches in Europe (W11 D3). They have not kept a clean sheet, however, in any of the last six. • The Ukrainian side have got out of their group in three of their last five participations. • Shakhtar are unbeaten at home to English visitors (W5 D2); the Pitmen's record against Premier League clubs, home and away, is W5 D3 L6. Manchester City • Having opened with an unexpected 2-1 loss at home to Lyon, City won by the same scoreline at Hoffenheim in their second fixture, David Silva scoring the winning goal in the 87th minute. • Josep Guardiola's side finished 19 points clear in the English Premier League last season, picking up a record 100 points – although there was frustration as their European campaign ended against familiar opponents, domestic rivals Liverpool running out 5-1 aggregate winners in the quarter-final. • City have won two of their last four European away games, losing the other two. • The Manchester club picked up six points away from home in last season's group stage, winning at Feyenoord (4-0) and Napoli (4-2) before being beaten at Shakhtar. • City have won only two of their last seven European matches, home and away – losing the other five. • The Citizens' best UEFA Champions League performance was reaching the 2015/16 semi-finals; this is their eighth consecutive appearance in the group stage. • City's record in Ukraine is W1 L2, the victory a 3-1 success at Dynamo Kyiv in the 2015/16 UEFA Champions League round of 16. Links and trivia • Shakhtar's record European defeat was a 7-0 loss at Guardiola's Bayern München in the 2014/15 round of 16. The Pitmen lost four of their five fixtures against Barcelona when Guardiola was in charge, including the 2009 UEFA Super Cup (0-1). • Fernandinho was a Shakhtar player between 2005 and 2013 when he left for City, scoring 31 goals in 183 league outings. He was named Ukraine's Premier League player of the year in 2007/08, and amassed six league titles, four Ukrainian Cups and the 2008/09 UEFA Cup. • Fernandinho's Shakhtar team-mates included Andriy Pyatov, Yaroslav Rakitskiy, Serhiy Kryvtsov, Taras Stepanenko, Taison, Alan Patrick and Dentinho. 4 FC Shakhtar Donetsk - Manchester City FC Tuesday 23 October 2018 - 21.00CET (22.00 local time) Match press kit OSK Metalist Stadion, Kharkiv • In March 2018 Olarenwaju Kayode moved to Shakhtar from City on loan, which was made permanent on 8 June 2018. • Oleksandr Zinchenko came through the ranks at Shakhtar but departed for City in July 2016 without making a senior appearance. • Danilo and Nicolás Otamendi played under current Shakhtar coach Paulo Fonseca at Porto in 2013/14. • International team-mates: Taison, Ismaily & Fernandinho, Ederson, Danilo, Gabriel Jesus (Brazil) Andriy Pyatov, Yaroslav Rakitskiy, Serhiy Kryvtsov, Taras Stepanenko, Viktor Kovalenko, Marlos, Bohdan Butko, Ivan Ordets, Mykola Matviyenko & Olexandr Zinchenko (Ukraine) Latest news Shakhtar • Shakhtar began this season with a 1-0 loss to Dynamo Kyiv in the Ukrainian Super Cup on 21 July. • That and the 1-0 loss against the same opponents in Kyiv on 3 August are the only domestic games Shakhtar have lost this season. • The Pitmen are undefeated in their last 11 games in all competitions, winning 1-0 against Desna Chernihiv on Friday thanks to Maycon's 88th-minute free-kick.
