Command Analysis

Shakhtar Donetsk

Current form
At the start of the Champions League, Shakhtar drew 0-0 with Bologna. This was the only point the team has since lost to Atalanta (0-3) and Arsenal (0-1) in the next two rounds. Of course, it is a positive that they managed to avoid a rout in London, but overall, the Miners have been too unconvincing in attack and have yet to score a single goal. Moreover, they have only made two shots on target in three games.
In the national championship after 11 rounds, Marino Pusic charges are in third place, having scored 23 points. At the same time, the gap from the leading duo of Dynamo Kyiv and Oleksandria is six points. In the last game before the European Cup confrontation, Shakhtar won 2:1 against Chornomorets.
The current Shakhtar squad is noticeably inferior to many of its competitors in the Champions League. The times when the Brazilians made the game are in the past. Local footballers have little experience of playing at such a high level.
Disqualifications and injuries
Only Puzankov will not play today due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- Shakhtar have not won in the first half in three of their last five matches
- The Miners have not won in their previous four Champions League matches
- There have been no goals exchanged in five of Shakhtar last six Champions League matches
Estimated line-up : Riznyk - Konoplya, Bondar, Matvienko, Pedro Henrique - Zubkov, Kryskiv, Bondarenko, Eginaldo - Sudakov - Sikan.

Young Boys

Current form
In the Champions League qualification, https://www.bscyb.ch target=_blank rel=noopener>Young Boys sensationally beat Turkish Galatasaray. That was the end of the Swiss team success in the main European football club tournament. They failed to score a single point in three rounds. Of course, it is worth making allowance for the difficult schedule - they had to play Aston Villa (0:3), Barcelona (0:5) and Inter (0:1) in turn. It is not very surprising that they did not score a single point in these matches and did not even score a single goal.
The performance in the national championship is also unsuccessful. 13 rounds are behind them, in which the "bees" scored only 13 points, with which they are in tenth place. In early October, the coach was dismissed. Rahmen was dismissed from his post, and Joel Magnin came to replace him.
Under the new coach, certain progress is noticeable. Young Boys have not lost in the last two rounds of the championship. First, they managed to beat Basel on their home field (3:2), followed by an away draw with Zurich (0:0). Perhaps we will see a certain breakthrough in the Champions League. Moreover, many leaders were given a rest in the game against Zurich.
Disqualifications and injuries
Due to injuries, Pfeiffer, Kamara, Ajam, Conte, Zukru, Sailer, Chayva and Djanko will not play in the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Three of Young Boys' last five matches have seen the score end at 0-0 at half-time
- At least three goals have been scored in nine of the team last 12 Champions League matches
- In 8 of the previous 11 matches in the Champions League, the Swiss club conceded first
Estimated line-up : Von Balmos - Atekame, Lauper, Benito, Blum - Lakomy, Ugrinich - Monteiro, Imeri, Virginhos - Ganvoula.

The nominal hosts get quite a noticeable advantage in the bookmakers' line. This is largely due to the more successful results of the miners. At the same time, Shakhtar has not demonstrated anything in the attack in the Champions League and is unlikely to surprise the upcoming opponent with anything. Young Boys had a change of coach, the Bees did not lose in the last two rounds of the championship, some progress has clearly been outlined. Today is actually the last chance for the Swiss to prove themselves, their motivation will clearly be at its limit. We think that, taking into account the odds set, it is worth betting on the nominal guests.
