📰 Team News: Shakhtar Donetsk
It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just the sole fitness concern for the Shakhtar Donetsk boss Marino Pušić to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength group. Andriy Totovytskyi (unknown injury) will miss out.
🔮 Prediction
It looks to us that Shakhtar Donetsk have it within them to get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
However, Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih could well find it tough finding the net themselves but we do fancy them hitting back at some stage.
Our tip is for a fairly comfortable 3-1 win for Shakhtar Donetsk come full-time.
