Before the evening matches and in particular this highly anticipated PSG-Atlético de Madrid, two matches took place in the early evening, kicking off at 6:45 p.m. The opportunity to see Aston Villa, winner of its first three meetings in this C1, fall on the lawn of Club Bruges (1-0). Less dominant in the game, Unai Emery's men even suffered regularly in this meeting and ended up conceding a gag penalty converted by Vanaken after returning from the locker room (52nd). With this defeat, the Villans fall to 5th place while the Belgians are now 20th.

At the same time, Shakhtar Donetsk recorded its first success in this new Champions League formula. At the Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen (Germany), the Ukrainians were able to turn around a situation that was not favorable to them. Led by Young Boys from Bern and a goal from Imeri (27th), they quickly equalized through Zubkov (31st), before taking a definitive advantage thanks to Sudakov (41st). This 2-1 success allows Shakhtar to climb to 26th place. On the other hand, the situation is becoming alarming for the Swiss club, 35th and still without a single point on the clock.
