Barcelona Team News

Barcelona entered this year’s Champions League season spectacularly. In the first match, they hosted Antwerp and sent them home with five goals in the net. In this match, Barcelona showed absolute supremacy and what it looks like when everything goes right for its footballers. They allowed the opponent only four attempts on goal and outplayed him in every segment of the game.

They could not repeat such a spirited game against Porto in Portugal. Barcelona played a shade better than their opponent here, scoring a goal in the last minute of the first half. Porto had several chances to equalize, but Barcelona’s defense played well, and with a bit of luck, they took another three points home.

Unlike in the Champions League, Barcelona does not look so dangerous in La Liga. They are in third place, with seven wins and three draws. They are still unbeaten, but the domestic league seems to suffer due to their efforts in the Champions League.

Shakhtar Team News

Shakhtar Donetsk entered the Champions League directly this season, and Barcelona, Porto, and Antwerp awaited him there. In the first match on their home field, they welcomed Porto. They opened the game well, but Galeno from Porto scored their goal in the eighth minute. Kevin Kelsy from Shakhtar equalized five minutes later, and only two attacks after that, it was already 2:1 for Porto. Taremi scored another goal for Porto in the first half of the match, and the Portuguese secured victory.

Shakhtar played an excellent match against Antwerp and showed real winning character there. Antwerp led 2:0 until the 48th minute, and then visiting striker Danylo Sikan worked. He scored in the 48th minute and then again in the 76th. Rakitskyi added another goal, and Shakhtar picked up their first points of the season in the Champions League.

Shakhtar is currently in third place in the Ukrainian Premier League with 21 points. They have six wins, three draws, and one loss, and obviously, their domestic competition suffers a bit because of the priority in the Champions League.

Barcelona vs Shakhtar Prediction

Barcelona will be an absolute favorite here, even without influential footballers like Gavi and Lewandowski. The Catalan team has decided that the Champions League is their priority, and rest assured that they have prepared well for this match. Shakhtar is a team that has nothing to lose in this match. They will defend most of the game, but they can be very dangerous on the counterattack. We expect Barcelona to win here but with less than 4.5 goals.
