Famous Ukrainian commentator Igor Tsyganik has made a prediction for the Ukrainian Cup semi-final match between Shakhtar and Chornomorets.
"The Pitmen are in great form at the moment, leading the league, so they want to fight for the Ukrainian Cup.
For Chornomorets, this is a game of principle, as the Seafarers rarely get such a chance to compete for a trophy. I think that's why Roman Hryhorchuk stayed in Odesa and didn't leave the team after the latest news about the internal affairs at Chornomorets.
I don't expect a cakewalk for Shakhtar, because Chornomorets will have to give the Pitmen a serious fight. I foresee a productive match with goals - the previous two meetings between these teams were just like that (2-1, 2-2).
I'll take a chance on an exchange of goals and a draw, but I believe that Shakhtar will reach the final," Tsyganik said.
