In the second leg of the Champions League playoff round, the players of Shakhtar Donetsk and Monaco will compete. On whose side will the victory be in this fight? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Shakhtar Donetsk
After five rounds in the national championship, Shakhtar managed to get to the second place in the table and is now one point behind its regular competitors. The team of De Derbi won four meetings in a row in all tournaments and conceded only three goals in the domestic championship. The first game with Monaco is in an equal fight. The victory in that match was won by the Miners due to a quick goal scored on the opponent's field – 1:0.
"Monaco"
The players of Monaco have lost their last three matches. It is obvious that Kovac's team is in a crisis situation, and therefore, having one point in its asset in the national championship, it is located on the penultimate line. In the first match against Shakhtar, the French were unable to respond to the opponent's goal, although they had a lot of options in order not only to distinguish themselves and equalize the score, but also to win the match against their opponent.
Statistics and figures:
- The opponents have approximately equal chances of winning;
- The first game ended with a score of 1: 0 in favor of Shakhtar;
- The Donetsk team won the last 4 matches;
- Monaco has 3 defeats in a row;
- The rivals met each other 4 times;
- In 3 meetings, the team playing in their native walls won.
Forecast
I am sure that Shakhtar will be able to keep a zero head start in this match. In recent games, the Miners look convincing against the background of their opponent and will be able to prove their most serious intentions in this match.
