The big Ukrainian derby will occur in European stage this time where Ukrainians are awaiting to determine the winner of this tie for the UEFA Cup final. The rivalry between Dynamo Kiev and Shakhtar Donetsk is like Barcelona/Real Madrid, Galatasaray/Fenerbache, or Manchester United/Liverpool. Both teams have won every single Ukrainian Premier League title, except for the very first one in 1992. The two clubs have finished in the top two spots in all but four seasons, with Dynamo leading the way with 12 titles followed by Shakhtar’s 4. Shakhtar have had their way with Dynamo as of late, winning three out of the last four league titles, including last season.
Dynamo Kiev
Yuri Semin’s team are in a very relaxed season since they have already secured their domestic title, as they are now even 12 points ahead of their rivals Shakhtar and look set to claim the Ukrainian league title once again. Dynamo showed a lot of quality this season and they definitely stand huge chance of eliminating their biggest rivals.
Shakhtar Donetsk
Shakhtar, conquerors of Tottenham and CSKA Moscow, beat Marseille 4-1 on aggregate in the last eight. They have never won any European title, and this season represents one of their best opportunities to grab their first one.
Team News
Captain Taras Mikhalik will still miss the big clash against Shakhtar and defender Pape Diakhate will also out injured. Roman Eremenko and Artyom Kravets are still battling to be fit for tomorrow’s match.
For Shakhtar, they have no injury concerns at this stage, however, five players are a yellow card away from a ban which means all of them will not play in the 2nd leg next week should they receive another booking.
