Analysis:

Analyzing the presented data, it can be noted that both Barcelona and Shakhtar Donetsk have observed interesting dynamics in recent matches, which may affect the upcoming UEFA Champions League match.

Barcelona are certainly in great form, remaining unbeaten in their last matches. The statistics of goals scored are impressive, both in domestic and international matches. Ball possession tends to be dominant, often exceeding 60%, which correlates with a high number of shots on goal and scoring opportunities. However, in matches with teams with significantly less possession of the ball, they drew, which indicates their potential vulnerability in defense, despite an aggressive attack.

Donetsk Shakhtar, on the contrary, demonstrates an unstable game, but cannot be underestimated. Their victories, even with less possession, indicate a highly effective counter-attacking strategy. Interestingly, both teams had a busy schedule, with Barcelona perhaps more tired due to a more intense championship.

Best Bet

Barcelona's attacking prowess this season is undeniable, with a high percentage of goals scored and a high number of shots on goal demonstrating the effectiveness of their attacking play. However, the team's defense shows vulnerability even in matches where it has significant possession of the ball. Shakhtar Donetsk, although not as consistent, have proven their ability to take fewer chances, often scoring on quick counter-attacks. Given the recent scoring history of both teams and possible defensive failures, the bet Both Teams Will Score seems likely. This option does not depend on who wins, but only on the fact that both teams, based on their recent performances and tactical approaches, are likely to score.

Bet Both teams will score stands out for the combination of Barcelona's stable attacking play and Shakhtar's demonstrated scoring potential, even against the backdrop of defensive problems. The odds are attractive from a risk/reward perspective given the current form and tactical disposition of both teams. While it is always important to remember the inherent unpredictability of sports, this bet offers attractive opportunities based on comprehensive statistical analysis.

Barcelona's dominant style of possession and aggressive attacking tactics naturally lead to more corner kicks as the team constantly puts pressure on the opposition defense. Shakhtar's strategic counterattacks also contribute to these statistics, although not as consistently. Analyzing previous matches, it can be said that both teams have a tendency to take a large number of corners, which is largely due to their attacking strategy. This bet, although riskier as it depends on the flow of the game, can be profitable given the playing styles of the teams. The odds are higher due to the unpredictability of this market, but the potential is there based on their historical play statistics.
