Shakhtar Donestsk will face off against Dynamo Kyiv in the 23rd round of Ukraine's Championship April 7.
According to Shakhtar midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan, "just like any other meeting with Dynamo, it will be a major and uncompromising game."
"It’s very important for us to add another victory to our winning streak, and we'll play for Donetsk and for all our fans," Mkhitaryan said.
"Despite our 16-point lead, the games versus Dynamo are always special. They are among the toughest opponents in the Ukrainian league. We are well aware of the responsibility for this match and on Sunday we will play not only for fun, but also to win it," Shakhtar official website cited the midfielder as saying.
"We do not think about who'll take the second, third or fourth spots. We are more concerned with our own victories in the remaining games. I am not going to say that we will surely win all of our fixtures, because the ball is round and everyone can play football. But in every game we will give it our all to emerge victorious," he concluded.
