Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner for this clash, but good reason to think Bologna and Shakhtar will score 2 or more goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Vincenzo Italiano or Marino Pusic has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s lately either. The bookies predict over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.33 equating to roughly a 74% probability.
