Shakhtar Donetsk Basel betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Given what we discussed earlier, the chance of a good result for Shakhtar Donetsk is very high. The Ukrainian club should push Basel into their midfield, dominating possession and creating the best chances for goals. On the other hand, the Swiss are going through a very positive moment in this competition, however, they face a superior team. In this way, we believe that Shakhtar Donetsk will take advantage of the individual quality of their squad and end the 90 'with a victory.
