Match Facts

  • The only previous European meeting between PSV and Shakhtar Donetsk was in November 2024 in the UEFA Champions League group stages, with PSV winning 3-2.

  • In major European competition, Shakhtar Donetsk have won just one of their six away matches in the Netherlands (D1 L4), a 2-1 win over Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League in October 2017.

  • PSV have lost their first UEFA Champions League match in each of their last five campaigns (2016-17, 2018-19, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26) since beating Man Utd 2-1 in 2015-16.

  • 2026-27 will be PSV’s fourth UEFA Champions League appearance in a row, their joint second-longest run of consecutive appearances in the competition (including European Cup), after a run of 12 between 1997-98 and 2008-09.

  • Shakhtar Donetsk are making their 20th appearance in the UEFA Champions League since their debut season in 2000-01 , the second-most of any side outside of Europe’s top five leagues across that time after FC Porto (21).

  • PSV scored 16 goals in eight games in the UEFA Champions League in 2025-26 (2 goals per game), their best average in a single season in the competition since 1992-93.
