Igor Tsyganik: "Shakhtar cannot afford to lose points in the Ukrainian league for the second time in a row"

Igor Tsyganik, a commentator for 1+1 Media, has made a prediction for the Ukrainian Premier League match between Shakhtar and Vorskla.

"Vorskla, despite the fact that they confidently defeated Metalist 1925 in the Ukrainian Cup (3-0), still looks unsure against the favourites. Recent defeats 0-2 to Dynamo Kyiv and 1-4 to Kryvbas only prove this.

"The Miners also had no problems in their cup game against Veres (3-0). I think Shakhtar will be significantly superior to Vorskla today. Patrick van Leeuwen's team is trying to recover from the 1-1 draw with Rukh.

"In general, Vorskla is a very unstable team for me. "For the second time in a row, Shakhtar cannot afford to lose points in the league, so I'll bet on the Donetsk team to win with a handicap (-1), on the Shakhtar's goals in each half, on a goal by Danylo Sikan," Tsyganik said.
