Inter Milan vs Shakhtar Donetsk Odds

The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.

Inter Heavy Favourites in Eyes of the Bookies

Inter Milan have been chalked up as the convincing -526 favourites for this Champions League encounter. This means that the bookmakers afford them a 84% probability of winning. Shakhtar Donetsk are the underdogs at +1200 which implies a low percentage prospect of winning.

Inter beating Shakhtar by three or more goals would see you win if backing them -2 on the Asian Handicap at -128. Meanwhile, a two-goal margin of victory means you get stakes fully refunded.

For those expecting a high-scoring contest, Over 2.5 Goals is the shortest price. If you’re anticipating that both teams will score, the BTTS Yes option can be wagered at -133.

You’ll love the hundreds of markets if you want to wager on the Champions League coupon and we advise heading to the leading sports betting sites to get the football wager that you think is value.
