AS Roma will be looking to carry the momentum provided by a three-game unbeaten UEFA Champions League run into a round of 16 tie against FC Shakhtar Donetsk, who are in this stage for the first time after five previous qualifying attempts ended in failure. Previous meetings • When the teams met in the 2006/07 UEFA Champions League group stage, Roma won their home game 4-0 – Rodrigo Taddei, , and David Pizarro all scoring in the final 24 minutes – while Shakhtar were 1-0 victors in Ukraine. • The teams for the Stadio Olimpico game on 12 September 2006 were: Roma: Doni, Panucci, Ferrari, Chivu, Tonetto, De Rossi, Aquilani (Pizarro 62), Taddei, Perrotta, Mancini (Cassetti 87), Totti (Montella 80). Shakhtar: Shutkov, Srna, Hübschman, Lewandowski, Raţ, Matuzalém (Gai 72, Jadson 81), Tymoshchuk, Duljaj, Marica, Elano, Brandão (Aghahowa 63). • Roma faced FC Dynamo Kyiv in the 2004/05 and 2007/08 UEFA Champions League group stage, losing at home (3-0, match forfeited) and away (2-0) in the first campaign before turning the tables three years later, winning 2-0 in Rome and 4-1 in Kyiv. • Shakhtar's defeat of these opponents in 2006 was their only win in ten UEFA Champions League games against Italian sides. In the same Rome stadium they lost 5-1 to S. S. Lazio in the 2000/01 first group stage, one of seven defeats in their eight UEFA Champions League meetings with other clubs. Match background • In their home games in Group E, Roma overcame CFR 1907 Cluj (2-1) and FC Bayern München (3-2) either side of a surprise defeat by FC Basel 1893 (1-3). • Shakhtar's first away game in the group ended in a 3-0 win at SC Braga and although a 5-1 defeat followed at Arsenal FC, they also managed to win 3-0 in Belgrade against FK Partizan. • Mircea Lucescu has taken teams to Rome on two previous occasions for European ties, the aforementioned 4-0 loss with Shakhtar and a 1-1 draw in the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League second group stage when in charge of Galatasaray AŞ. After ten away ties in Italy he is still awaiting his first victory; his teams have drawn five and lost five. Team ties • Lucescu and Claudio Ranieri were on opposite sides in a total of ten fixtures in Serie A and . The Roma coach had five wins to Lucescu's three. They last met in the 2003/04 UEFA Champions League group stage when Lucescu's Beşiktaş JK were 2-0 victors away against Ranieri's Chelsea FC, who triumphed by the same score in the return. • Bogdan Lobonţ became the first-choice goalkeeper for FC Rapid Bucureşti after Lucescu took over as head coach in 1997. Lobonţ was still at the club when Lucescu returned for a second spell in 1999/2000. • Lobonţ played with Rãzvan Raţ at Rapid between 1997 and 2000; the pair are also team-mates in the Romanian national team. They faced an Italy side including De Rossi and in a UEFA EURO 2008 group fixture in Zurich which ended 1-1. Marco Borriello was an unused substitute. • Eduardo was in the Arsenal FC team who lost 1-0 away to Roma in March 2009 in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg but won 7-6 on penalties after a 1-1 aggregate draw. The Croatian international's spot kick was saved by Doni, Arsenal's only unsuccessful attempt. • Adriano scored the second goal in FC Internazionale Milano's 2-0 win in Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round first leg in August 2005. He also played in a 1-1 draw in Italy; Pizarro came on as a substitute in both legs. • Lucescu, who had coaching spells in Serie A with AC Pisa 1909, , AC Reggiana 1919 and Inter, locked horns with Roma on nine occasions. His record was W3 D3 L3, two of those wins coming in Rome.

UEFA Champions League knockout stage: Did you know? • Teams have recovered from a first-leg deficit to go through to the next stage on 22 occasions, although only once – AFC Ajax's defeat of Panathinaikos FC in the 1995/96 semi-finals – has a side gone through after losing the first leg at home. The biggest losing margin a side has overturned was achieved by RC Deportivo La Coruña in the 2003/04 quarter-finals when they fought back from a 4-1 defeat at AC Milan to win 4-0 at home. • Nineteen ties have been decided on the away goals rule, including five where the triumphant team lost the first leg. • FC Bayern München hold the record for the biggest first-leg lead with a 5-0 success at Sporting Clube de Portugal in the 2008/09 first knockout round, eventually going through 12-1 after a 7-1 home victory in the second leg. • Ten ties have now gone to penalties, including the game between Arsenal FC and AS Roma in the 2008/09 first knockout round. Five of these were finals – 1996, 2001, 2003, 2005 and 2008. The first two-legged tie decided on spot-kicks was PSV Eindhoven's 4-2 win against Olympique Lyonnais on 13 April 2005 after a 2-2 aggregate draw. • In all, 17 ties have required extra time. So far seven have been decided by extra time alone: four quarter-finals, two first knockout round encounters and the 2007/08 semi-final between Chelsea FC and Liverpool FC. • The 2008/09 last-16 encounter between Bayern and Sporting featured more goals (13) over its two legs than any previous UEFA Champions League knockout tie, Bayern prevailing 12-1. • There has never been a knockout tie ending goalless after two legs. Nine have finished 1-0 on aggregate, most recently Manchester United FC's narrow victory against FC Barcelona in the 2007/08 semi-finals. • Bayern's 4-0 defeat of Lyon in 2009/10 is the joint biggest aggregate win in a UEFA Champions League semi-final, equalling Juventus' 6-2 victory against Ajax in 1996/97. • Clarence Seedorf is the only player to win the European Champion Clubs' Cup with three clubs (AFC Ajax 1995, Real Madrid CF 1998, AC Milan 2003, 2007). Liverpool's Bob Paisley (1977, 1978, 1981) is the only coach to win three times. • Ottmar Hitzfeld (BV Borussia Dortmund 1997, Bayern 2001), Ernst Happel (Feyenoord 1970, Hamburger SV 1983) and José Mourinho (FC Porto 2004, FC Internazionale Milano 2010) are the only coaches to win the trophy with two clubs. • No team has successfully defended the UEFA Champions League trophy with AC Milan (1989, 1990) the last club to win consecutive European Champion Clubs' Cups. Milan (1994, 1995), Juventus (1996, 1997) and Manchester United (2008, 2009) have all returned to the final as holders only to lose. UEFA Champions League: Did you know? • S.S. Lazio goalkeeper Marco Ballotta is the oldest player to compete in the UEFA Champions League having been aged 43 years 252 days when he featured against Real Madrid CF on Matchday 6 of the 2007/08 competition. • is the oldest player to score in the competition, aged 37 years and 87 days, in AC Milan's 2-2 draw against Real Madrid CF on 3 November 2010. • Celestine Babayaro is the youngest player to have appeared in the UEFA Champions League. He was 16 years and 87 days when he started for RSC Anderlecht against Steaua on 23 November 1994. He was then sent off in the 37th minute.
