Barcelona vs Shakhtar Donetsk Prediction

Why we picked this for Barcelona vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Our pick for Barcelona vs Shakhtar Donetsk in Champions League is Under 2.5 goals, with 52% confidence. Recent form: 2 of Barcelona's last 5 games went over 2.5 goals (2.2 goals per game in total), against 4 of 5 for Shakhtar Donetsk (3.4 per game). Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 4 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The two sides haven't met recently, so head-to-head history plays no part in this call. With 52% confidence the recent numbers only just favour this side, so this is one of our weaker picks. Final score: 2-1. The pick lost.
