Shakhtar Donetsk host Kolos Kovalivka in the final round of the Ukrainian Premier League season. The champions have already secured the title and will aim to finish the campaign on a positive note, while Kolos hope to continue their recent solid record against Shakhtar.

Shakhtar finishing the season strongly

Shakhtar come into the final round in excellent form. The team are unbeaten in 21 consecutive league matches and remain the highest-scoring side in the division with 71 goals in 29 games.

The hosts are currently on a seven-match winning streak in the league, while over 2.5 goals has landed in each of their last eight matches across all competitions.

Defensive vulnerabilities remain

Despite their attacking dominance, Shakhtar have shown defensive weaknesses in recent weeks. Both teams scored in seven of the club’s last eight matches.

With the title already secured, squad rotation is expected, which could open additional opportunities for Kolos going forward.

Kolos still capable of competing

Kolos arrive after back-to-back defeats, but prior to that they enjoyed an impressive eight-match unbeaten run and were involved in the race for European qualification places.

The visitors are not among the league’s highest-scoring teams, but they have managed to score in 19 of their 29 league fixtures this season. They also avoided defeat in the last two meetings against Shakhtar.

Prediction and betting angle

With no major pressure on either side in the final round, the match could develop into an open and entertaining contest. Shakhtar are expected to create plenty of chances, but their recent defensive record suggests Kolos could also find the net.

Both Teams To Score – Yes stands out as the strongest betting angle for this fixture.
