There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Rukh Vynnyky leading Metalurh Zaporizhya by 29 points.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Persha Liga game only four days ago.

These teams have little in common geographically as Metalurh Zaporizhya have to travel 1000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
