Famous journalist and editor-in-chief of Football magazine Artem Frankov has prepared a forecast for the return leg of the Europa League 1/16 finals between Rennes and Shakhtar.
"Is Shakhtar a favorite to advance? Hmm... Only after a 2-1 win in the first match, where Bruno Genesio released Omari and Beloson into the defense. Still, against Shakhtar, I'm waiting for Rodon and Theata. Moreover, let's face it - for all the advantages of the Ukrainian team's performance in the first match, they were again quite lucky - at least in the first half.
I don't like to make predictions for our teams' matches! There will definitely be those who know better than the author what he was thinking and what he was planning. They will explain that in fact I sincerely wished Shakhtar to lose - regardless of the text, regardless of the content...
My bet: "TV 3" for 2.31 is almost neutral; as you can see, it's tasteless to bet on Shakhtar's passage, and it may be reasonable, but unpatriotic to bet on Rennes," Frankov said.
