Feyenoord vs Shakhtar Donetsk Prediction 16.03.2023 Europa League

• Competition: Europa League
• Date: 16.03.2023
• Kickoff: 17:45 UTC / 18:45 CET
• Venue: De Kuip (Rotterdam)

Feyenoord and Shakhtar have an active result from the first match played in Warsaw and this duel will decide who will advance to the 1/4 finals of the Europa League.

The home team enters this match as the favorite and as the first-ranked team of the Dutch Eredivisie. Before this match, they beat Volendam 2-1 and thus kept a 3-point advantage over the first runner-up Ajax. The Eredivisie will be uncertain until the very end and playing on two fronts is not easy. The club from Rotterdam has not been defeated in the previous 17 matches and is one of the teams in the best form in Europe.

Shakhtar had played in the Champions League this season but continued the competition in the Europa League after placing 3rd in the group stage. In the previous phase, they eliminated Rennes and also hold 1st place in the championship of Ukraine. This competition is a good chance for Shakhtar to go as far as possible and show that this is still a quality team despite the departure of a significant number of foreigners, specifically Brazilians.

Feyenoord vs Shakhtar Donetsk: FEYENOORD TO WIN

Feyenoord is having perhaps the best season of this century and this is a unique opportunity to reach the end of the Europa League in addition to winning the title. We do not believe that the club from Rotterdam will calculate in the Europa League and that they will attack with all their strength. In the first match, they had great initiative and supremacy with as many as 21 shots at the opponent's goal. We expect attacking football from the home side and at least 3 goals in the rival's net. Home team to win with AH -1 is the best solution for betting on this match.
