Shakhtar Donetsk to Win

Reason for tip

Bologna lost manager Thiago Motta, key defender Riccardo Calafiori and striker Joshua Zirkzee in the summer and have started the new campaign poorly with zero wins from their opening four games. The Italians could struggle against Shakhtar, who have won two of their three away matches this season, and so a victory for the visitors looks a tempting prospect.

Shakhtar Donetsk 2-1

Reason for tip

Shakhtar have scored eight goals across their last two games and this form should see them score multiple on Wednesday. However, Bologna have netted in each of their last four home matches so the Greyhounds get give their fans something to cheer about on their big day.

Bologna vs Shakhtar Donetsk Predictions

  • Bologna are yet to register a win this season
  • Shakhtar have won two of their three away matches this season
  • This is the first competitive meeting between the two sides

Miners can claim victory on Bologna’s big day

Bologna will play in Europe’s biggest club competition for the first time in 60-years on Wednesday but they may struggle to secure all three points on their big return when they face Shakhtar.

The Greyhounds were the story of Serie A last season but after losing manager Thiago Motta to Juventus, and many key stars moving on, they have failed to start the new campaign brightly – with just three points accrued from their opening four matches.

Shakhtar have also faced their share of troubles this season with two defeats from their opening five league matches but Marino Pusic’s side have been clinical in front of goal as of late, scoring eight goals across their last two games.

The goalscoring form of the visitors could be key and the Ukrainian outfit may be able to get off to a winning start in Italy. Each of Bologna’s last four home matches have seen both teams find the net so their may still be joy for the Greyhounds however our predictions is a 2-1 win for Shakhtar.
