Kolos Kovalivka form and stats

Seven points from three Premier League home games is a great start for Kolos Kovalivka, who are hoping to build on that form here at Obolon' Arena.

Kovalivka travelled for their previous game, a trip to Zorya that ended 1-1. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Mariupol in a game that was won 1-0.

Yevhen Seleznov was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Zorya after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?

A decent goal production from Kovalivka in their home games so far, with 5 goals from 3 league matches. Kovalivka have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 0 goals.

Minai form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Premier League for Minai with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

Minai might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Mariupol proved too strong as Minai slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans. Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Inhulets.

Late heartbreak for Minai in the Mariupol match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Minai playing away, we found three games. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and three home wins.

It's early days yet, but Minai has scored 1 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
