Shakhtar is the clear favorite with decent odds at 1.67, and their attacking, combined with Ilves's recent goal-scoring streak at home, suggests both sides will find the net. This match features enough attacking intent and a cautious defense to see both teams score, making this a solid pick.

Both teams have shown they can score and concede. With the relative openness of the UEFA group stage games and the potential for an early goal, over 2.5 goals makes sense given the attacking setups of both sides.

Ilves will likely stiffen up early, and Shakhtar might need time to break them down. Expect a defensive first half, followed by Shakhtar's quality to shine in the second, possibly sealing a win after a goalless first 45.
