Brest will seal their place in the next stage of the Champions League, if they can overcome Shakhtar on Wednesday evening. It has been a remarkable campaign so far for the unfancied French side, They have won four and lost just one of their six games, as well as earning plenty of plaudits for their exciting style of play. However, they won't find things easy agsint a Shakhtar side with qualification ambitions of their own. The Ukrainians are currently outside the playoff places, but victories in their remaining two games will give them a strong chance of making the next stage.
