Matchpack: Shakhtar Donetsk v Borussia Dortmund

Shakhtar lost Willian to Anzhi Makhachkala at the end of the winter window so one of new signing Taison or Alex Texeira will come into the attack. Olexandr Kucher misses out in defence due to suspension and Dmytro Chygrynskiy is likely to come in. Left-back Marcel Schmelzer has been passed fit for Dortmund but midfielders Ilkay Gundogan and Kevin Grosskreutz are out with injury and illness respectively. Neven Subotic is fully fit after overcoming a calf problem. MANAGER QUOTES Mircea Lucescu: “Judging by the games we have played at the training camps, I can say that we are ready. But the real test is waiting for us tomorrow. We have beaten German sides many times: Stuttgart, Shalke 04, Werder Bremen. So we have experience of performance against German teams." Juergen Klopp: "(Shakhtar) have unbelievable quality in their squad, their starting XI is brilliant and so is their bench. They just got Taison 20 million euros cheaper than the other one (Willian), it's unbelievable. They have an impressive midfield with Fernandinho. It will be a massive challenge for us."
