Former Dnipro 1 coach Oleksandr Hrytsay shared his opinion on the Champions League second round match Shakhtar vs Atalanta.
Alexander Gritsai"Frankly speaking, I do not expect much from Shakhtar in this meeting. After all, the Donetsk team is not in the best conditions now. As for Atalanta, the Bergamaschi are also in 12th place in the Italian league. But they look quite impressive. Although they have lost to Inter, Torino and Como this season, they still have wins over Lecce and Fiorentina, as well as a draw with Bologna.
I think that Atalanta now look stronger than Shakhtar. The team from Bergamo played 1-1 against Bologna, but still, in my opinion, they were superior to their opponents. And we saw how Bologna played with Shakhtar and how many chances they had. But still, this does not tell us anything, because these are separate matches. We'll see," Gritsai said.
