Dnipro-1 form and stats

As mentioned below, Dnipro-1 are feasting on a winning streak here so far with maximum points from their first 3 Premier League games.

A good away victory last time out for Dnipro-1, who won 2-1 against VPK-Ahro Shevchenkivka.

Before that, Dnipro-1 had a Premier League home game versus Veres which ended with a victory 1-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dnipro-1 perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

A decent goal production from Dnipro-1 in their home games so far, with 5 goals from 3 league matches. Dnipro-1 have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 1 goal.

Zorya form and stats

Zorya are happy with their away performances in the Premier League so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels.

Zorya won their last game, 3-0 versus Chornomorets played at home.

A 1-1 draw at Rukh Vynnyky's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Zorya playing away and similar expectations, we found four relevant matches. Results were zero Zorya wins, two draws and two defeats.

The Zorya manager V. Skripnik has seen his team go crazy on the road this season, having scored 10 goals in 3 league matches away. Zorya's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the preceeding six meetings featuring these two squads are: one win for Dnipro-1, one draw and four wins for Zorya. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: three games.

The Ukrainian Premier League is the highest division of football in Ukraine. It was created in 1991 as Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union. Twelve teams play each other twice in a 22 match regular season to create a league table. The table then splits in half resulting in a Championship round and a Relegation round, each playing ten more fixtures.
