Team News

Shakhtar
Royal Antwerp
  • Yukhym Konoplya returns following a ban and should come in at right-back.
  • Shakhtar have a clean bill of health otherwise.
  • Jurgen Ekkelenkamp is suspended following his red card against FC Porto earlier this month.
  • Sam Vines, Jacob Ondrejka and Mandela Keita are doubts but Anthony Valencia are absent.

Prediction

  • Shakhtar's 1-0 win over Barcelona earlier this month means they remain in with a chance of securing a spot in the next round of the Champions League. The Ukrainian side beat Royal Antwerp 3-2 in the reverse fixture.
  • Royal Antwerp have lost all four group stage games and they need to beat Shakhtar to harbour any hopes of booking a Europa League spot. They have failed to score in their two away matches and have conceded seven times in those outings.
  • Shakhtar will back themselves to secure all the spoils here.
