Claim Your Welcome Bonus!Shakhtar
Shakhtar had a sound group stage in the Champions League, finishing third in the standings. They collected nine points in six rounds, while their opponents included Barcelona, Porto, and Antwerp. So there is no doubt that the team will make a splash in the Europa League play-offs. We note that since December 13, 2023, it has not played any official matches - only friendly matches. In eight of them, Shakhtar won three, drew three, and lost twice.
Marseille
Marseille did not show outstanding results in the group stage of the Europa League, but can consider it a success - after all, they managed to reach the playoffs. Another thing is that Marseille took second place in the quartet with Brighton, bleeding Ajax, and AEK. They have had serious problems - Marseille can not win for five matches, and after 0:1 against Lyon, they played a draw with a modest Metz 1:1.
Expert Betting Tips
We disagree with the bookmakers' experts and do not consider Marseille a favorite. Shakhtar hasn't played in official games for a long time, but they were brilliant in the Champions League group stage, where they even beat Barcelona. Considering Marseille's recent problems, Shakhtar will not lose the first leg of the Europa League round 32. Everything will be decided in France.
