It's only match two of the Persha Liga for these squads. And there's points to play for here at Stadion Livyy Bereh as Livyi Bereh greet SK Poltava. Read this preview!
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Livyi Bereh form and stats
In the previous season, Livyi Bereh's league statistics were 15 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, results that produced 2nd place in the Second League: Group A. During these 19 matches they scored {47 goals} and conceded 14. Performing as the home team in the previous season Livyi Bereh managed 10-0-0 (win-draw-lost) with {24 goals} and 4 conceded. The hosts won their first Persha Liga game here at Stadion Livyy Bereh, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Livyi Bereh last season were 10 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses from 10 games.
Livyi Bereh are returning here after guesting Chernihiv in a Ukrainian Cup fixture and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.
Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Hirnyk-Sport.There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Livyi, as the Persha Liga home game vs Chernihiv is only three days away.
Early season league goal statistics from Livyi Bereh's 1 home game: {1 goals}, 0 conceded.
SK Poltava form and stats
Let's have a look at how SK Poltava performed last season in the Second League: Group B: They landed a 6th position in the league table after playing out 2 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. In total they scored 16 and conceded {22 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 2 and lost 0 with 9/6 goals scored/conceded. SK Poltava have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Persha Liga were 2 victories, 2 draws and 0 defeats from 4 fixtures.
Two away games in a row for SK Poltava, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Hirnyk-Sport in the Ukrainian Cup.
It was a Persha Liga defeat before that one as the away game against Inhulets wasn't a success with a 0-5 loss.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the SK Poltava manager Sysenko as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Yarud Mariupol'.
It's early days yet, but SK Poltava has scored 0 and conceded 5 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
