Barcelona vs Shakhtar Donetsk Prediction: We doubt the visitors can score

Prediction for the UEFA Champions League Barcelona vs Shakhtar match which will take place on October 25th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

If Barcelona wins both games against Shakhtar, they will surely solve the problem of not reaching the playoffs but finishing at the top of their Champions League group. We expect the reigning Spanish champions to be as active as possible in the home game. Barcelona have won 100% of their home games this season and have never lost. After the international break, the Catalans played Atletico and deservedly won 1:0.

In the last round, Shakhtar defeated Antwerp 3:2 away. It was an important win, which opened the door for the Ukrainians to qualify for the Europa League playoffs. We want to know if they can finish in the top two of their Champions League group. Shakhtar is in good form going into the game with the Spanish champions, with a three-match winning streak and four wins in their last five games.

We like Shakhtar to score, but we doubt the visitors can. Barcelona has a solid defense and a lot of clean sheets, including wins over Atletico, Sevilla, Antwerp, Betis, and Cadiz. The Catalans have yet to concede a goal in the 2023/24 Champions League, while Porto has also been beaten on the road.
