Match build-up
Shakhtar begin their Ukrainian Cup campaign as the current trophy holders. The Pitmen hold the record for the most victories in the tournament – 14. This match extends the Miners' busy schedule, marking their third in eight days following the Champions League encounter with London-based Arsenal (0-1) and the UPL clash with Dynamo (1-1). Marino Pusic's men had time to hold one training session in Lviv between the Ukrainian Clasico and the cup meeting with Zorya, working mainly on tactics and set pieces. We would like to add that the most prolific players of the Orange-and-Blacks this season are Heorhii Sudakov (7 goals, 3 assists) and Artem Bondarenko (5 goals, 3 assists).
