Shakhtar Donetsk hosts Dinamo Zagreb in round 3 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, October 22nd at OSC Metalist (Kharkiv)
Shakhtar Donetsk makes a double impression in the current group stage of the UEFA Champions League so far, having gained three points in two matches held. First, it lost to English Manchester City with a 0:3 score in Kharkiv, with no chance of salvation (moreover, the Citizens could easily score 2 times more). Then the Ukrainians unexpectedly (mostly) beat Italian Atalanta (2:1) in Milan in a match where the Miners were really lucky. Indeed, the unlucky Goddess, in addition to the unconverted penalty + plenty of other goal attempts, managed to concede the second goal in 95th minute!

As for Dinamo Zagreb, the Croatian flagship looks very worthy in the main European competition, having already been remembered for its crushing victory over the aforementioned Atalanta with a 4:0 score in the opening round of the group stage. Meanwhile, this opponent is the reigning bronze medalist of Italy and goes in the top of the current Serie A standings! You can also highlight a pretty decent performance of Dinamo in the confrontation with Man City at Etihad, where the British grandee, stuffed with stars, managed to beat the men of Nenad Belica with a 2:0 score (a powerful attack of the Citizens managed to score the second goal only in the last moments compensated for the match).
I believe that the Balkan visitors can well stand up for themselves in the confrontation with unstable Shakhtar. Finally, I will recall that Dinamo Zagreb has been showing confident and scoring football since the qualification tournament. For example, it eliminated Georgian Saburtalo (3:0, 2:0), Hungarian Ferencvaros (1:1, 4:0), and Norwegian Rosenborg (2:0, 1:1)!
Prediction for the match: Dinamo Zagreb to win with +1.5 handicap
