Zorya vs Shakhtar Donetsk Betting Tips
These are our top betting tips and predictions for the match.
👉 Our prediction is: Shakhtar Donetsk to win the 1st half
Shakhtar Donetsk is a tough opponent to face, particularly away from home. They have enough dangerous attacking weapons to deal some damage up front, while the defence is quite solid as well.
It would not be a shock if they come in and give their hosts Zorya a bit of a scare in the early going.
That is why we recommend taking Shakhtar Donetsk to win the first half.
👉 Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match
Zorya vs Shakhtar Donetsk has all the makings of a high-scoring affair, and we anticipate this game going over 2.5 goals.
Online bookmakers have given good 1.51 odds for over 2.5 goals, and we fancy the chances of that bet paying off thanks to the tremendous attacking ability of the two teams.
