Slovan Bratislava have been in decent form lately, with a couple of wins and a couple of draws in their last few games. They seem to be a side that is hard to beat, even if they don't always win. Shakhtar Donetsk, on the other hand, have had a tough time, losing most of their recent matches, which suggests they are struggling for confidence and results.

Because the two teams haven't played each other recently, we can only judge from their current shape. Slovan look much more stable and are playing with more confidence, while Shakhtar are clearly out of sorts. Based on these recent results, this looks like a match where Slovan Bratislava would be the stronger side and likely to come out on top.
