Nothing to worry about in defence for Olimpik, as their goalkeeper has completely shut out the opponents for 184 minutes in the Persha Liga.

Metal Kharkiv form and stats

Metal Kharkiv are yet to lose a point on their Persha Liga travels this season with 2 wins from 2 away games. Kharkiv have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of 14 victories in a row regardless of arena.

Two travels in a row for Metal Kharkiv, whose manager O. Kucher could celebrate last time after the Persha Liga win against Prykarpattia.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Kharkiv manager O. Kucher as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Yarud Mariupol'.

6 goals so far away for Metal Kharkiv, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 league matches away.
