After two Champions League games, Shakhtar Donetsk and Dinamo Zagreb are tied for second in Group C with three points. On Tuesday the two teams meet in Ukraine for the first of back-to-back games. They will then go to Zagreb on Nov. 6 for the reverse fixture.
Shakhtar are running away with the Ukranian Premier Liga. After 11 games, Donetsk are 11 points ahead of the club in second place. In the Champions League, Shakhtar opened the tournament with a loss to Manchester City but were able to go to Italy and beat Atalanta. If Shakhtar are going to pick up their second straight victory they will need a strong performance from Junior Moraes. The Brazilian striker leads the club with 12 goals this season.
Dinamo Zagreb are in a very tight race domestically. Only one point separates Dinamo and Hajduk Split. In the Champions League, Zagreb got off to an incredible start, smoking Atalanta 4-0 before going to Manchester and losing 2-0 to City. With Zagreb and Donetsk so evenly matched, the two games against each other will likely determine which club advances to the knockout stage. Dinamo will rely on Mislav Orsic to drive the attack. Orsic is Zagreb’s top scorer with 12 goals in all competitions this season.
