Shakhtar Donetsk vs AEK Athens FC
Combo Double chance : draw or AEK Athens FC and -3.5 goals
Shakhtar Donetsk are having a rough time. They lost several of their recent matches, including some heavy defeats, and only managed a draw in their most recent game. AEK Athens have also had a mixed run, with a couple of losses and a big defeat among their recent results, but they did pick up a win not long ago. Overall, both teams look a bit shaky rather than in great form.
There's no recent history between these two to look back on, so it's hard to say if their meetings usually produce lots of goals. Given how both sides have been playing, this looks like a close and possibly low-scoring game, with neither team clearly on top. It wouldn't be surprising if it ended in a draw, though AEK Athens might just edge it.
