The well-known Ukrainian journalist and commentator Roberto Morales prepared a forecast for the match of the group stage of the Champions League between RB Leipzig and Shakhtar.
Photo: shakhtar.com"RB" is a very ambitious project. The task is to dethrone Bayern. So far this has not been successful. Past successes are one thing. I have in mind the entry into the group stage of the Champions League. Another thing is that the team had a difficult start to the season. Two wins, one of them in the German Cup against a lower division representative. Accordingly, the team won the championship only against the unimpressive Wolfsburg.
On Saturday, Eintracht showed (especially in the first half) how to deal with this vulnerable opponent. The wings don't work very well, which is surprising for the Bundesliga. However, there is Olmo, Nkunku and a really good attack that gets the result.
Everyone talked about the great losses of Shakhtar, which has completely changed. "Miners" still have a raw look. However, remember that at the start of the UPL, the team did not concede a single goal. Jovicevich has a certain game pattern.
What am I expecting? I believe that both teams will score and the total will be more than 2.5 goals. This is my forecast. Betting on "Leipzig" is too banal. Everyone estimates the chances of the Germans much higher than the Ukrainians," Morales said.
