Shakhtar Donetsk are not the biggest favorites in the title race anymore. Lucescu’s team is only on the second place in Ukraine, with 28 points and a 28-7 goal difference, having five points less than Dinamo Kiev, the team that is leading right now. Shakhtar recorded four victories, one draw and one defeat in six home games this campaign.

Hoverla Uzhhorod could not expect too many things from a game like this one, considering that they are fighting to avoid the relegation. Guests have only one victory this season in Ukraine Premier League, 1-0 against Metalurg Donetsk one month ago. With nine points and a bad goal difference of 8-16, the away team is on the 11th place, six points over the relegation zone.

Shakhtar Donetsk had no problems in the last meetings with Hoverla, proof that the last six meetings, since 2010, were won by Shakhtar, 17-3 on aggregate.

Prediction: 1/1 @ 1.50
Bet365 offers the best odds for this bet at the moment. We expect Shakhtar to control the whole game, both on the pitch and on the scoreboard, from the first minute until the last one.
