Well-known Ukrainian journalist and commentator Igor Tsyganik has made a prediction for the Ukrainian championship match between Metalist 1925 and Shakhtar.
"I was not convinced by Metalist 1925 in the match against Oleksandriya (3:3). Although they scored three times, they could have conceded much more, given their problematic defense.
"Shakhtar, on the other hand, played a very confident match against Minaya (4:1). It is noticeable that Igor Jovicevic's team is really on the move now. There are important meetings with Feyenoord in the Europa League ahead.
Again, I don't think that Metalist 1925 will be able to create any serious problems for the Shakhtar. I think Shakhtar will win a convincing victory. I'll bet on the triumph of the Donetsk team with a handicap (-1.5)," Tsyganik said.
