THE PREDICTION

Despite the obvious off-field upheaval of Russia’s war in Ukraine and the fact that Ukrainian clubs have lost several players as a result, Shakhtar Donetsk have actually started the UEFA Champions League campaign quite well. They are playing their UEFA Champions League home games in the neutral venue of Poland. The reigning champions of this competition, Real Madrid, have eased into nine points from three games, despite being, as ever, quite unconvincing at times against Celtic, Leipzig and Shakhtar. Both teams scoring, like last week in Madrid’s 2-1 win, looks a good bet for this one.
