Lviv hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 7 points and a 13th position in the Premier League table. Visiting Mariupol holds 8th place with 13 pts.
Lviv and Mariupol should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1300 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Lviv form and stats
Three Premier League home games done for Lviv, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches.
A good away victory last time out for Lviv, who won 1-0 against Desna (placed 4th). Sensational by Lviv last match, beating Desna away as big underdogs. Prior to that, an away loss at Oleksandria.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Lviv here at Stadion Ukrajina in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (2 from 3 games). Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Lviv have allowed the opposition to score 8 goals here at Stadion Ukrajina.
Mariupol form and stats
3-4-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Mariupol, who have the most conceded goals (14) away in Premier League, in their Premier League matches away. Mariupol has drawn their two previous away games.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Mariupol manager O. Markevych as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Veres.
Mariupol have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 10 league away games 10 goals have been scored. Mariupol have conceded 14 goals in these away matches.
