BORUSSIA MONCHENGLADBACH VS SHAKHTAR DONETSK PREDICTION

Borussia Monchengladbach have brought joy to this season’s UEFA Champions League with their exciting, attacking football and have scored an incredible ten goals over their first three group games. After an incredible 0-6 win over Shakhtar Donetsk in the reserve fixture between these two sides, the Ukrainians will be desperate for revenge on Matchday 4. Monchengladbach have been dealt a huge blow by the absence of forward Alassane Pléa due to testing positive for Covid-19. Pléa netted a hat-trick against Shakhtar in that 0-6 win. The visitors however, are suffering from a number of absentees themselves and despite the absence of Pléa, Monchengladbach should have enough attacking firepower within their squad to secure a second successive victory over Shakhtar in Group B.
