Shakhtar’s squad boasts experienced defenders and creative midfielders, while Petrovac’s team has shown resilience with a recent positive form trend. Injuries appear minimal, giving both sides a full squad to choose from.

Shakhtar Donetsk begins the match with a young goalkeeper R. Bahlai, backed by experienced defenders like V. Bondar and Y. Konoplya. Their midfield features a mix of youth and experience, including Pedrinho and Marlon. Petrovac’s squad includes seasoned midfielders such as D. Bakic and Z. Divanovic, with key attackers N. Gluscevic and N. Kovinic available for a strong offensive effort.

If Shakhtar Donetsk opens the scoring early, they will set the tone for the match, but Petrovac's recent form suggests they could respond with a goal of their own. A draw at HT remains a strong possibility given the evenly matched form and recent fixtures, making a second-half goal crucial.

Shakhtar Donetsk are likely to dominate possession, utilizing their midfield creativity to unlock Petrovac’s defensive lines. Expect an emphasis on set pieces and quick passes to create scoring chances, especially with Petrovac potentially sitting back and countering. Betting on over 2.5 goals aligns with their attacking intent.
