Insights:
  • Lviv have the fewest scored goals in the second half (4) in Premier League

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Zorya have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1000 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Lviv form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Premier League this season. Lviv have only managed 0 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses from their games here at Stadion Ukrajina. With eight home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Lviv fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Mariupol game long ago, can be stopped today.

The Lviv fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here at Stadion Ukrajina: A 0-2 defeat against Desna (placed 7th).

In the game before, an away victory match versus Kolos Kovalivka with a 1-0 scoreline.

The lack of attacking qualities in Lviv means that they have only scored 4 goals in 8 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Lviv have conceded 14 from these games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
