inter milan v shakhtar prediction

Inter Milan and Shakhtar Donetsk will face each other on Monday evening at the Merkur Spiel-Arena in Dusseldorf in the semi-finals of the Europa League. Both sides have won this competition previously with Milan last lifting the trophy in 1998 after defeating fellow Italian side Lazio 3-0 and Shakhtar beating Werder Bremen in the only final they’ve featured in back in 2009.

Inter edged past Bundesliga side Bayern Leverkusen 2-1 in the quarter-finals thanks to two first half goals from Barella and Lukaku and finished their league campaign strongly being undefeated in their last 10 matches and finishing just 1 point adrift of Serie A winners Juventus.

Shakhtar also head into this game in excellent form being undefeated in an impressive 15 games in all competitions which helped them win the Ukrainian Premier League for the 13th time.

These two sides have only met twice before with both encounters being in 2005 and so past meetings can’t really be taken into consideration. However, it is Inter who head into this match as heavy favourites to progress into the next round.

Both sides head into this fixture in great form with excellent defensive and offensive records. Milan are undoubtedly the better side and if they play to their full ability, they should be too much for the Ukrainian league winners. We’re predicting both sides to get on the score sheet but Inter Milan to progress to the final with a 2-1 victory.
