Match Preview
Karpaty Lviv will host Shakhtar Donetsk at Stadion Ukrajina on Sunday, 10 August, in a Premier League clash that sees the home side struggling for form. Karpaty have recorded just two draws and three losses in their last five matches, leaving them desperate for a turnaround. In contrast, Shakhtar, while not at their peak, have managed to remain unbeaten in their last five games, with three draws and two wins, showcasing a more resilient approach. Historically, Shakhtar has dominated this fixture, winning five of the last ten encounters, with eight of those matches featuring over 2.5 goals. Given Karpaty's defensive vulnerabilities, particularly evident in their recent performances, Shakhtar's attacking prowess could exploit this weakness. The odds reflect Shakhtar's strong position, with them favoured at 1.36 to win. A bet on over 2.5 goals at 1.85 seems promising, considering both teams' tendencies to contribute to high-scoring games, alongside the likelihood of both teams finding the net, given the odds of 2.25 for BTTS.
