Volyn form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Volyn's two home games in the Persha Liga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Stadion Avanhard. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Volyn.

Volyn drew their last game, 1-1 away at Prykarpattia (placed 13th).

Preceding that game was the away draw at Nyva Vinnytsya (after extra-time, 3-5 on penalties) that finished 1-1.

Volyn are traveling soon after this match as the Ukrainian Cup match at Karpaty awaits in two days.

Volyn has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.

Metal Kharkiv form and stats

Metal Kharkiv are on a winning streak away after three games, as mentioned below. A maximum 9 points in the bag from 3 travels in the Persha Liga. Impressively, the visitors are on a 16-match winning run which they hope continue versus Volyn.

Impressive finishing from F. Bahlouli, Y. Banada and Matheus Peixoto secured the home win 3-0 against Obolon'-Brovar in their previous game.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Yarud Mariupol' at their stadium, the result 3-1.

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 two days, this time against Skoruk Tomakivka.

Today's guests are confident travelers having scored 8 goals in 3 league games away this season. It's not easy to score on Kharkiv as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
