Competing for the Champions League group stage berth, Pedrinho's super goal, and Anatolii Trubin's confident saves made difference in Shakhtar's 1-0 win in Monaco. Read our Shakhtar vs Monaco prediction and betting tips.
The future Ukrainian national goalkeeper Anatolii Trubin led Shakhtar to a very significant 1-0 away victory, which will help them a lot in the second leg on Wednesday. He had a very comfortable performance including 6 saves, with three coming from the shots inside the box. Roberto De Zerbi's Shakhtar got just a few chances vs Monaco in the first leg but scored the goal that will ensure they could have the same tactics, playing on the counterattacks in the rematch. Don't lose sight of the talent that Pedrinho has, De Zerbi is gonna get the best from this huge potential. After a season in shadow and without chance and minutes at Benfica Pedrinho is ready to show everyone his skills and has started with a beautiful goal at a crucial moment for his club.
Shakhtar will need much better performance, to lift possibilities for the goal chances, make more off-ball movements to create space, and pull markers away. They were unable to play their usual game with setting triangles in half-space to get through blocks and their players were far from each other to play a one-touch combination that could release someone in the open spaces behind Monaco’s defensive line.
Shakhtar Donetsk: Trubin; Dodo, Vitao, Marlon, Matvienko; Antonio, Patrick; Tete, Pedrinho, Solomon; Traore
As we wrote few times before Monaco has pressure to step up in the group stages of the UCL. That is the main aim of the club for this season and they played in the Ligue 1 with some second-string players trying to field their strongest line up rested for the qualifying games. They grabbed just one point in three matches in the Ligue 1 and if they fail to reach UCL coach Niko Kovac will be close to sacking. Their last three games are just the opposite of something they need to play if they want to steal a win in Ukraine. Monaco has many problems with ball possession, they are careless prone to mistakes in the midfield and defense and attackers are not scoring.
The key for their success is probably in the midfield, Aleksandr Golovin could deliver some quality set pieces, that almost lead to a leveler in the first match. He had problems completing the passes through the whole game and must do better in Kharkiv. Aurelien Tchouameni, who is in the eye of many Premier League clubs, including Man Utd is a dangerous goal threat when pushing up and has a very nice long-distance shot. He is very reliable to do many things defensively as a good tackler. Tchouameni is compared to Kante or Ndidi from Leicester. At the moment, their best striker Wissam Ben Yedder is unable to find the back of the net, but he is trying everything to help the team. He must be on his usual levels to give Monaco a boost in the second leg.
Monaco: Majecki; Sidibe, Maripan, Badiashile, Jakobs; Martins, Fofana, Tchouameni, Diop; Ben Yedder, Volland

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
