Luís Castro in 2019
Mircea Lucescu in 2017

This game is the first, in which Mircea Lucescu who spent in Shakhtar Donetsk a dozen of years and one of the two original head coaches who participated in the tournament back in 2004 will be leading the chief opponents of the Donetsk club. Anatoliy Demianenko commenting on the game stated that the main intrigue is Lucescu versus Shakhtar.[3] The former players of Shakhtar Artem Fedetskyi and Oleksiy Hai commenting on the game agree that it is unusual game, but Shakhtar shall still win.[4] The head coach of Shakhtar Luís Castro is eager to win the Super Cup which slipped away the last season.[5] Castro is sure that both clubs will field their best squads for the game and Lucescu will be requesting the maximum from his.[6] Another Ukrainian head coach Myron Markevych thinks that the game does not matter and the main task for the teams is to qualify for the European competitions.[7]

The game is expected to kick off the next day after the national holiday Independence Day of Ukraine.

The refereeing team led by Romanov partially preserved from the last year will be supervised by Luciano Luci, while VAR operations will be supervised by Serhiy Lysenchuk.
