There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Premier League table so far. Here's the Lviv - Mariupol latest:

Mariupol have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Mariupol form and stats

Playing away, Mariupol, who have the most conceded goals (18) away in Premier League, have won 3 games, drawn 3 and suffered 5 defeats so far this season. With three draws in a row for Mariupol the feeling in the team is perhaps one of both relief and disappointment. One point away has become something of a habit for Mariupol who have played out draws in their last three away games.

Mariupol has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Karpaty for a Premier League game that ended a draw (1-1). Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Karpaty that ended 1-1.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 19 similar matches played by Mariupol in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Mariupol, 6 draws and 10 defeats.

Mariupol find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 12 goals from 11 away fixtures. Mariupol have conceded 18 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Lviv - Mariupol 2-2. Lviv-Mariupol H2H statistics last seven meetings regardless of arena: Lviv 2 wins, Mariupol 3 wins, 2 draws.
