Shakhtar v Brest
Wednesday 17:45 (Live on TNT Sports Extra)

In Slovakia last night, Stuttgart beat Slovan Bratislava 3-1 to give us a push on our handicap bet. We're reinvesting our stake in another Champions League game tonight...

Shakhtar Donetsk host Brest in Germany this evening and reckon the French outfit can get the better of the Ukrainians. Outside of a defeat to Barcelona, the Ligue 1 side are unbeaten in the Champions League this season (W4-D1-L1).

Their results are good enough to give them a fighting chance of automatic qualification but, with Real Madrid up next for them, the Pirates could really use all three points from this one. Encouragingly for them, they have already won at Sparta Prague and Salzburg in the current campaign.

Shakhtar are ensconced in the lower half of the Champions League, having gone W1-D1-L4 to this point - a record that includes heavy 'home' losses to Atalanta and Bayern Munich. A break in their domestic action means they haven't played a competitive game for five weeks, so rust may be an issue this evening.

We'll take a punt on well-oiled Brest - who have already won 3/4 competitive games in 2025 - to get the result the want.
