Shakhtar Donetsk to record a narrow win at Rennes
7058

On Thursday night, Rennes and Shakhtar Donetsk go head-to-head in the Europa League's last 32 second leg after the first leg finished 2-1 to the visitors.

Rennes

The French team have been going through a poor run of form of late, as the first-leg defeat in this tie was their third straight loss in all competitions, while Les Rennais conceded at least two goals for the third consecutive game in the encounter, too.

However, the home team bounced back from that poor run of form at the weekend, as Bruno Genesio’s team recorded a 2-0 home win over Clermont.

The victory was a boost for the French side, as they also head into this crucial second leg of the tie on the back of a three-game winless run in the Europa League.

They are unbeaten in the competition in four home matches on home soil, having also scored at least two goals in six of their last nine Europa League matches on their own patch.

Shakhtar Donetsk

The Ukrainian team will be pleased to have gained a lead from the first leg, even if it is only a narrow advantage. The game was the visitor's first competitive outing since November, so there was a chance that they would be slightly rusty.

The victory also ended a two-game losing streak in the Europa League for Shakhtar, although they had last featured in the competition in 2021.

The first leg continued a run of high-scoring games for Shakhtar in the Europa League, as there have been over 2.5 goals scored in 11 of their last 13 matches in the competition.

However, Shakhtar’s recent away record in the Europa League has not been great, as the Ukrainian outfit has won just three of their last six away games in the competition.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Shakhtar Donetsk will record a narrow victory in a low-scoring encounter to book their place in the next round of the competition.
