This could be an interesting match as Sumy have their presumed home advantage while Volyn are ahead in the Persha Liga table with their 20 point advantage.
It's no vacation for neither Sumy nor Volyn 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.
