A match in a particular context for both teams. Shakhtar Donetsk receives Rennes, Thursday February 16 (6:45 p.m.) in the round of 16 first leg of the Europa League. Relocated to Warsaw (Poland) due to the war in Ukraine, the meeting will be a back-to-school for Ukrainian players. They will taste official competition for the first time since November 23, 2022. A recovery that will take place without their former best player, winger Mykhaylo Mudryk, who left for Chelsea.
Third in its Champions League pool and therefore donated to the Europa League, Donetsk will challenge Bretons in the hard since the serious injury of Martin Terrier, replaced in the winter transfer window by Karl Toko-Ekambi. Less efficient lately (four defeats in the last five games), the Rennais have still not lost on the European scene (three wins and three draws).
