💭 Prediction

It seems to us that Karpaty Lviv won’t find it easy at all to be scoring even one goal against a Shakhtar Donetsk lineup who should be able to fashion the chances to find the net multiple times while not conceding.

We reckon that it will be a very comfortable 3-0 winning scoreline for Shakhtar Donetsk at the end of the 90 minutes.
