Young Boys vs Shakhter Donetsk Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League

Prediction published on 31/07/2016, 17:30  by in Champions League Predictions

Shakhtar Donetsk are one of those sides that always seem to get results against a certain level of side but struggle against the top ones. That was shown last season when they suffered some heavy defeats against Real Madrid and PSG in the group stages of this tournament. Then they went into the Europa League and reached the semi-finals with three good away wins part of that run to the last four. They are heading for the play-off round again this year after winning the home leg of this tie 2-0. It should have been a better result with 16 goal attempts made while Young Boys could only manage one shot on target. The Swiss side haven't made the group stages of the Champions League and have failed to score in their last four European games. Shakhtar are up against the kind of side they seem to get good results against so can get an away win here to seal the tie.
