Previous meetings • Lukaku and Lautaro Martínez both scored twice in Inter's 5-0 win against Shakhtar in last season's UEFA Europa League semi-final, Danilo D'Ambrosio getting the other at the Düsseldorf Arena. • That was the clubs' third meeting in UEFA competition, Inter beating Shakhtar 3-1 on aggregate in the 2005/06 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round when a 1-1 draw in Milan was followed by a 2-0 win in Donetsk. Shakhtar's coach at the time was Mircea Lucescu, formerly of Inter. Form guide Shakhtar • Shakhtar qualified as winners of the Ukrainian league, claiming the title for the 13th time – and fourth in a row – in 2019/20. • UEFA Champions League quarter-finalists in 2010/11, Shakhtar are in the group stage for the 15th time and have progressed no further on ten of the previous 14 occasions, including the last two. • The Pitmen finished third in their section in 2019/20, a 3-0 Matchday 6 defeat at home to Atalanta sending them into the UEFA Europa League. Shakhtar picked up six points in last season's group stage to finish behind Manchester City and the Italian club. • Luís Castro's side went on to beat Benfica (2-1 h, 3-3 a) and Wolfsburg (2-1 a, 3-0 h) over two legs in the UEFA Europa League round of 32 and 16 respectively before defeating Basel 4-1 in a one-off quarter-final in Gelsenkirchen, but Inter proved too strong in their semi-final. • Despite that opening victory in Madrid, Shakhtar have won only three of their last 14 UEFA Champions League matches (D6 L5). • A 2-1 victory against Benfica in last season's UEFA Europa League round of 32 first leg ended Shakhtar's seven- game winless run in home European fixtures (D4 L3), though they won four in a row prior to that sequence – all in the 2017/18 UEFA Champions League. • The Donetsk club's home record in last season's UEFA Champions League group stage was D1 L2, with those two losses, against Manchester City and Atalanta, both by a 0-3 scoreline. • The Pitmen's record at home to Italian clubs is W5 L7, last season's loss to Atalanta following two successive 2-1 victories. • The 2-1 win against Atalanta in Milan on Matchday 2 last season is the only time Shakhtar have avoided defeat in their last four contests with Italian sides, home and away. Inter • Second in Serie A in 2019/20, a point behind champions Juventus, Inter are the last Italian team to win the UEFA Champions League, in 2010 – their third European Cup triumph, and first in 45 years.
