Young BoysThe Gunners need to recover after a defeat in the EPL, while Shakhtar needs to end their goalless streak. Arsenal has the stronger squad and home advantage. However, Shakhtar has motivation and European experience. Both teams are likely to score, but Arsenal is the favorite to win.
The Arsenal team is focused on the upcoming match against Liverpool this weekend, making their preparation for the game against Shakhtar less intense. Shakhtar's attack has not shown itself in previous games, they have problems scoring goals. Arsenal is likely to win, but we should not expect a high number of goals due to the need to conserve energy for the subsequent match. I recommend betting on total under 3.5 goals.
In the Champions League match, "Arsenal" is hosting "Shakhtar". "Arsenal" is the favorite, while "Shakhtar" is experiencing problems and showing weak results. "Arsenal" is playing at home and is motivated to win after losing in the Premier League. A confident victory for the home team is expected. Prediction: "Arsenal" to win by at least 3 goals.
Shakhtar performs well in matches against strong opponents, avoiding heavy defeats. Arsenal recently suffered a loss to Bournemouth and has injured players. It is expected that Shakhtar will be able to maintain the +2.5 handicap against Arsenal, avoiding a rout. The game will be closer than it may seem, considering Shakhtar's experience and stability in such matches.
Arsenal vs Shakhtar - domination by the hosts is expected, confident in victory. Arsenal is looking to bounce back from their defeat in the EPL and are ready to win. Shakhtar is not in their best form and is unpredictable away from home. Arsenal could easily score 4+ goals. The visitors are unlikely to be able to resist.
