Former Ukrainian national team and Shakhtar player Yaroslav Khoma told us whether there will be a winner in the UEFA Champions League group stage match between Bologna and Shakhtar today:
"Bologna, despite the loss of a large group of leading players, remains a fighting unit in Italian football, relying primarily on the reliability of the rear. And the status of today's clash will force the Champions League debutant to act through "I can't", especially with the support of their home walls.
That's why Shakhtar should be prepared for a tough fight on every patch of the field. Today will be a completely different football game compared to the one in the Pitmen's last match with Karpaty in the UPL, where Lviv let the opponent play. As for me, if Shakhtar do not lose in Bologna, it will be a good achievement for them," Khoma said.
