Match Facts

  • Shakhtar Donetsk and Atalanta have faced each other in the UEFA Champions League in one previous campaign (2019-20), with both sides winning away from home in their two group stage meetings (Shakhtar won 2-1 in Italy and Atalanta won 3-0 in Ukraine).

  • Since beating Atalanta in October 2019 (2-1), Shakhtar Donetsk have gone winless in each of their last eight matches against Italian sides in European competition (D3 L5), scoring just one goal across those eight games.

  • Atalanta won five consecutive away games in the UEFA Champions League between December 2019 and December 2020, but have failed to win each of their last four on the road in the competition (D2 L2). They conceded just three goals during their five-game win streak, while they’ve conceded 11 goals across the most recent four on the road.

  • Shakhtar Donetsk have kept three clean sheets in their last four UEFA Champions League matches (W2 D1 L1), losing 5-3 in the other against FC Porto. It’s as many clean sheets as they’d managed in their previous 19 games in the competition.

  • Atalanta have only won one of their last nine games in the UEFA Champions League (D4 L4), and are winless in their most recent five (D3 L2). This is currently their longest run without a win in the competition, with their last such victory coming in September 2021 v Young Boys (1-0).

  • Shakhtar Donetsk have won their last two home UEFA Champions League matches, both 1-0 and both of which have been under Marino Pusic. Only six managers have won their first three home games in the competition without conceding, most recently Mikel Arteta last season with Arsenal.

  • In their 0-0 draw with Bologna on MD1, Shakhtar Donetsk mustered just four shots, their lowest total in a UEFA Champions League game since November 2020 (4 vs Borussia Mönchengladbach). Following their 4th minute penalty miss, they posted an xG of just 0.08.

  • Marten De Roon became Atalanta’s top appearance maker in the UEFA Champions League last time out (22), overtaking Remo Freuler in the game against Arsenal (21). The Dutch midfielder has only missed two of Atalanta’s 24 games in the competition to date, both of which they failed to win (D1 L1).

  • On MD1 against Bologna, Shakhtar Donetsk handed UEFA Champions League debuts to three Brazilians (Vinícius Tobias, Marlon Gomes, Pedro Henrique), meaning they’ve given 32 Brazilian players their competition debuts; only FC Porto (53) and Benfica (41) have awarded more.

  • In their draw against Arsenal in their tournament opener, no Atalanta player created more chances (2), completed more dribbles (2), made more tackles (4) or applied more high-intensity pressures (38) in the match than Ademola Lookman.
