Shakhtar Donetsk vs Lyon Prediction & Tips
Shakhtar host Lyon on Wednesday at 20:00 in the Kiev Olympics in the Group F matchday six of the Champions League. It should be noted that by UEFA’s decision this game has changed stadium, with the reason for the change related to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia and the imposition of martial law in the city of Kharkiv, located about 30 kilometers from the border. The Ukrainians, led by Portugal’s Paul Fonseca, are third in Group F with five points and are forced to beat Lyon by second-placed Lions goalkeeper Anthony Lopes to qualify for the eighth- end of the millionaire event. For the French, a draw will suffice to qualify for the knockout stage and if they win and if Manchester City lose at home to Hoffenheim they secure first place.Shakhtar have won all four home games in this season’s competition, defeating Naples, Feyenoord and Manchester City in the group stage and Roma in the last 16, but this season has not won any of the previous two. And in addition, he has conceded goals in the last seven European games. We believe in a game with goals.
Shakhtar have scored in four of their last five games in Europe.
In the five games made by Lyon for this group both teams scored.
Lyon are the second worst defense of the group, with ten goals conceded.

Lyon have only lost one of their last nine European games, scoring two or more goals in each of the last six.

However, he will face a Ukrainian line-up that favors a lot of attacking football and will have to do everything to win. Bet both teams score.
