Insights:
  • Veres have the fewest conceded goals (10) in Persha Liga

Shevchenkivka have less rest than Veres in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Persha Liga game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Polessya, was also a home game. The away team is better rested. It's no vacation for neither Shevchenkivka nor Veres as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
