Sumy will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 22 points behind Obolon'-Brovar.
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!
Sumy form and stats
With 1 win, 2 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Sumy, who have the most conceded goals (56) in Persha Liga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 14 attempts. With ten home games in a row without a win, the Sumy fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Zirka game long ago, can be stopped today.The fans are hoping that Sumy will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-7 away loss in the Persha Liga game against Dnipro-1. Ahead of that match, Sumy lost 0-3 at home to Avanhard.
Sumy aren't scoring a lot here at Stadion Yuvilejnyj with only 7 goals from 10 games. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Sumy having conceded 29 goals here at Stadion Yuvilejnyj so far.
Obolon'-Brovar form and stats
The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 6 wins, 2 draws and only 1 loss. Obolon'-Brovar have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Persha Liga home defeat versus Volyn with 2-4 on the scoreboard. Prior to that result Obolon'-Brovar won their away game at Ahrobiznes Volochysk. The scoreline was 2-1.
Obolon'-Brovar are not goal shy away from home, finding the net 16 times in 9 away games so far. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (7 so far).
