In the 5 games played so far between the two teams, Shakhtar has 4 wins and 1 draw, and in 3 of the 5 games, only one team has won. In 4 of the 5 matches, the result ended in over 2.5 goals.

-In yet another Europa League quarter-final match, Shakhtar’s Ukrainians face Basel in a game that is expected to be balanced but with the superiority of the team led by the Portuguese coach.

The Ukrainian champion is the favorite to win this tie against a Basel who wants to save the disastrous season with this competition.

Shakhtar is very well oriented with Luís Castro at the helm, an excellent attack with Moraes, Marlos, and company, but in this game, they will not have the presence of central defender Khocholava due to punishment, something that the Swiss will be able to take advantage of.

Without major absences, Basel will place the best eleven on the field to win the match and in the Europa League demonstrated good football against Frankfurt.

With two teams trying to score the goal during the 90 minutes, I believe that we are facing a game with a tendency to over goals and that will be my betting prediction for this game.
