Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid Prediction: Bet on guests to win a high-scoring match

Shakhtar and Real Madrid have been playing each other on a regular basis of late. Shakhtar looked decent at the Santiago Bernabeu in the first round of the 2022/23 UCL. We hope that the Miners have enough charisma for the return leg.

Shakhtar Donetsk

In comparison with Dynamo Kyiv, Shakhtar Donetsk are doing quite well. The Mienrs are already first in the UPL, albeit they have one game more than Dnipro 1, but the international matches have shown that the rivals of the Moles are not morally stable, which will definitely affect the final result. In the Champions League Shakhtar has 4 points after three rounds, the only defeat at the hands of Real Madrid, a narrow loss to the strongest team in Spain, Europe and very likely the planet. In addition, the defeat at the hands of Leipzig and a draw with Celtic. It should be noted that Shakhtar have scored in every match of the LC 2022/23, scoring a total of six times, that is, two goals per game on average.

Real Madrid

Currently Real Madrid is second in the La Liga Primera Division, having equal number of points with the first-placed Barcelona. Overall, Real Madrid have not lost a single game on the season, with only one draw in 12 games. An away win against Shakhtar guarantees the visitors a place in the playoffs, and perhaps the top spot in Group F.
