Shakhtar Donetsk welcome Sporting CP at Stamford Bridge, London on Tuesday, Nov 3 at 6:45 PM in a League Stage fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Shakhtar Donetsk come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 1D 0L). Sporting CP, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 0D 0L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
In 2 previous meetings, Shakhtar Donetsk lead 0–2 with 0 draws. Their last encounter ended in Shakhtar Donetsk won 0–1.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Shakhtar Donetsk a slight edge, but Sporting CP are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
