The Dutch side averaged 3.60 goals per match across their last five outings while conceding just one per fixture, a ratio that bodes well against a Shakhtar side who arrive on the back of consecutive defeats. Their previous meeting ended 3-2 to PSV, reinforcing the hosts' edge. Over 2.5 goals at 1.44 looks a solid secondary selection given both sides' tendency to feature in high-scoring affairs.
