Former Ukraine international Artem Fedetskyi has made a prediction for the Shakhtar vs Marseille Europa League play-off match.
- "I don't consider Marseille to be a favourite. Yes, there are several bright players in the team, but the French giants lack stability. And the Pitmen's young age should not be misleading. "The current Shakhtar team is a real fighter with a wealth of international experience. I'm not going to name a winner in this pair based on the results of two matches, but today in Hamburg, the nominal hosts will prevail 2-1.
"The Shakhtar are well aware of the importance of the match in Hamburg, so they don't have to worry about their best performance. And the fans' enthusiastic support will encourage them to demonstrate their best qualities. "Yes, Marseille have some strong players individually, but I hope that thanks to their team play, the Miners will not allow them to be visible," said Fedetskyi.
