Slovan Bratislava desperately need points on Wednesday, Dec 9 at 6:45 PM in the League Stage. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Slovan Bratislava come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 3L in last 3). Shakhtar Donetsk, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (1W 1D 0L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Slovan Bratislava head into this on the back of a defeat, while Shakhtar Donetsk arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Slovan Bratislava a slight edge, but Shakhtar Donetsk are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
