Real Madrid - Shakhtar Donetsk: Form Analysis

Real Madrid dropped points for the first time this season, in their last game as they drew 1-1 at home to Osasuna. With that, they dropped to second in the league standings and will be hoping not to drop second in this group too. They have a good scoring run and the return of Karim Benzema will boost that. Shakhtar are coming from a well worked 6-1 win over Metalist Kharkiv, their third win in five matches. They’ve played seven games this season, and are unbeaten too, but with five wins. Last season they were in the same group as Real Madrid and suffered home and away losses. This season they will be hoping to avoid a repeat and this is the first chance they get.

Real Madrid & Shakhtar Donetsk Squad Analysis

Real Madrid have Karim Benzema back after missing a few weeks with injury. His return wasn’t a happy one though, as they drew 1-1 with Osasuna in a game he missed a penalty. He will be out to make amends here and with his numbers in the Champions League, he might get on the score sheet. At Shakhtar, Danylo Sikan will be the man to watch after his hat trick against Metalist Kharkiv, while Marian Shved will also provide an interesting watch, having netted three times in the last five matches.

Our Real Madrid vs Shakhtar Donetsk Prediction

Real Madrid are unbeaten so far in the season, having played 10 matches across all competitions. They are strong, and especially when playing at home. In this game, they carry a good scoring run, having. Managed multiple goals in four of their last five matches. They play a Shakhtar side that’s also doing well on the attacking front. One stat about both teams though is that they aren’t very strong defensively, which opens this up for a potential over 2.5 goals outcome.

Prediction :

Over 2.5 goals
