Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk will be hoping to mark their first ever Europa League semifinal appearance with a first-leg victory over Sevilla FC – a club that has not lost against Ukrainian opponents in five meetings. Manager Mircea Lucescu’s men resume their European campaign fresh from a 6-1 aggregate win over Sporting Braga in the previous stage.

The other fixture of the day sees Liverpool take on Villarreal at Estadio El Madrigal. The Reds, who were surprisingly held to a 2-2 home draw at the weekend by Newcastle United in the Premier League, were rather impressive in the quarterfinals against Borussia Dortmund. Their 5-4 triumph over the German giants on aggregate sent out a strong message about their intention of becoming one of Europe’s most dominating sides once again.
