A victory on matchday six at home to Lyon would have kept them in the competition at their opponents' expense, but they could only draw 1-1 in Kyiv. • It was plain sailing for Eintracht in UEFA Europa League Group H as they won home and away against Lazio, Apollon Limassol and 2017/18 runners-up Marseille, scoring 17 goals in the process. Previous meetings • The clubs were paired together in the 1980/81 UEFA Cup first round when Eintracht, in their first game as holders, lost 1-0 in Donetsk before recovering to win the Frankfurt return 3-0. • That was the first tie against Bundesliga opposition for Shakhtar, who at the time were representing the Soviet Union. The Pitmen's overall record against German clubs is W7 D7 L6, including a 2-1 win against Werder Bremen in the 2009 UEFA Cup final. At home they have drawn all of the last five such encounters, the latest 2-2 against Hoffenheim in this season's UEFA Champions League. • Eintracht's three visits to Ukraine have all ended in defeat but they have won two of the three ties, most recently against Dnipro in the 1993/94 UEFA Cup second round (2-0 home, 0-1 away). Form guide Shakhtar • Shakhtar qualified for this season's UEFA Champions League as winners of the Ukrainian championship, claiming the title for the 11th time in 2017/18, when they also won the Ukrainian Cup to complete a second successive domestic double. • The Ukrainian club's first two group stage encounters both finished 2-2, at home to Hoffenheim and away to Lyon, but they were then beaten heavily home (0-3) and away (0-6) by Manchester City. A last-gasp 3-2 success at Hoffenheim kept hopes alive only for the draw with Lyon to end their campaign. • This is the fifth time that Shakhtar have been involved in the UEFA Europa League round of 32, but they have won only one tie – against German opposition in 2015/16, Shakhtar following up a goalless draw against Schalke in Lviv with a 3-0 win in Gelsenkirchen in which Marlos and Viktor Kovalenko both scored. Shakhtar have lost at this stage against Fulham (2009/10), Viktoria Plzeň (2013/14) and Celta Vigo (2016/17) and have yet to win their home leg in the round of 32 (D2 L2). • Shakhtar failed to win any of their home games in this season's UEFA Champions League group stage (D2 L1), but have lost only two of their last 17 European games on Ukrainian soil (W11 D4). They are without a clean sheet, however, in the last eight. Eintracht • A dramatic 2017/18 German Cup final victory over Bundesliga champions Bayern München – 3-1 in Berlin – gave Eintracht their first major silverware in 30 years and secured their first European campaign in five. • The German club opened their Group H campaign with a 2-1 victory in Marseille and secured qualification by beating Lazio (4-1 home) and Apollon (2-0 home, 3-2 away), maintaining their winning streak against Marseille (4-0 home) and Lazio (2-1 away) to finish nine points clear of the Italian club. • Eintracht's only other European participation in the past dozen seasons came in 2013/14, when they successfully negotiated the UEFA Europa League play-offs and group stage, topping their section with 15 points, before going out on away goals to Porto in the round of 32 (2-2 away, 3-3 home). • The 1980 UEFA Cup winners won three of their five away fixtures in that 2013/14 campaign and have lost just one of their last 11 European games on the road (W6 D4). • Eintracht's overall record in the UEFA Europa League, home and away and including qualifying, is W13 D2 L1, the sole defeat coming at Maccabi Tel-Aviv (2-4) in November 2013. They have scored two or more goals in all but one of their last 17 European fixtures and have not drawn a blank since a 0-0 draw at home to Newcastle in the 2006/07 UEFA Cup group stage.
