LNZ Cherkasy Team Overview
LNZ have had a mixed start to the season: they are already 10 points behind the Champions League zone, so a title challenge is out of the question (they finished second last season). Their recent form is inconsistent - two wins, two draws and two defeats in six matches is hardly a picture of stability. The one bright spot is their defence, which is conceding less than a goal per game.

🚩 Corners Prediction
In 9 consecutive Shakhtar matches the total corners has been under 9.5, and in 7 consecutive home matches it has been under 8.5. This points to a fairly low-key game in terms of corners.

Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely outcomes for this match are: 1-0 (19.45%), 0-0 (17.32%), 2-0 (11.22%). A narrow Shakhtar win by 1-0 is given the highest probability, though a goalless draw is also rated fairly highly.
🎯 Reliable Bet
Shakhtar have gone unbeaten in 26 of their last 28 Premier League matches, which reflects a long-standing trend. The club have also not lost a home match this season. We're backing the Double Chance (Shakhtar not to lose) at odds of 1.13.
⭐ Editor's Prediction
The picture looks clearly in Shakhtar's favour: the hosts are noticeably superior to their opponents in attacking quality, rarely make mistakes at the back, and continue to chase top spot thanks to a strong start to the season. This is the last match before a lengthy international break, so there is no reason for the Miners to hold anything back. We are backing a Shakhtar win as our main bet.
