RB Leipzig and Shakhtar Donetsk set to produce high-scoring draw
6043

On Tuesday night, RB Leipzig hosts Shakhtar Donetsk at the Red Bull Arena in gameweek one in Group F of the Champions League.

RB Leipzig

Die Roten Bullen’s recent form has been highly inconsistent. Domenico Tedesco’s team followed up an 8-0 DFB Pokal win against Teutonia Ottensen with a 4-0 hammering at Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga.

The defeat against the Eagles means Leipzig has won just two of their seven matches in all competitions this season.

RB Leipzig exited the Champions League at the group stage last season, finishing third in a group containing Manchester City and PSG.

However, the German team did finish the group stages with a three-game unbeaten run.

On home soil, RB Leipzig picked up four points from their last two group games against Manchester City and PSG.

However, on the flip side, they have also won just one of their previous four matches on home soil in the Champions League.

Shakhtar Donetsk

The visitors have started their domestic campaign by taking seven points from their three matches in the Premier League.

All three games have produced under 2.5 goals. The fact that Shakhtar has kept clean sheets in all their league games this season has been a significant factor in those low-scoring encounters.

Shakhtar endured a nightmare campaign last season in the Champions League, as they picked up just two points from their games in Group D.

However, it was a tough group also containing eventual European champions Real Madrid, Italian giants Inter and surprise package Sheriff.

Shakhtar lost all three away games in last season’s group stages, conceding at least two goals in the defeats in the process.
