Juventus will attempt to continue their sensational recent form when they welcome Ukrainian outfit Shakhtar Donetsk to the Juventus Arena on Tuesday.
The Serie A club extended their unbeaten league run to 45 games with a 4-1 success over Roma at the weekend, while they recovered from two goals down to secure a point against Chelsea in the opening match of Group E.
Shakhtar have won their last three domestic titles and boast a perfect record from 10 matches this season. They opened their Champions League campaign with a 2-0 victory over Danish outfit Nordsjaelland on matchday one.

Both sides have almost fully-fit squads to choose from, with the home side expected to pair Mirko Vucinic and Alessandro Matri in attack. Meanwhile, Shakhtar have Tottenham target Willian back from a thigh strain.
