Metal Kharkiv form and stats
Metal Kharkiv's struggle is real here at Oblasny SportKomplex Metalist with only 8 points collected from 10 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-5-4. With seven home Premier League games in a row without a win, the Metal Kharkiv fans could feel they are not getting value for their money.
No payout for Metal Kharkiv in their previous match, an away game at Vorskla that ended in defeat 2-3.
Before that, Kharkiv drew at home versus Veres.Metal Kharkiv are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 10 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 18 goals have been conceded.
Dynamo Kyiv form and stats
Dynamo Kyiv have an excellent away record in the Premier League so far with 6-1-2 from 9 games.
There were no winners in Dynamo Kyiv's previous match, the home game that ended 1-1 vs Shakhtar Donetsk (placed 1st).
Before that, Dynamo travelled to Rukh Vynnyky and returned home with a draw after the game finished 1-1.Low on goals? 9 of this team's last 10 league matches have had two or less goals.
Dynamo Kyiv are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 14 times in 9 away games so far. It's not easy to score on Dynamo as they have only conceded 8 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
Surprisingly enough, Dynamo Kyiv faced Metal Kharkiv the last time they performed in a match with three or more goals in total. That was the Dynamo Kyiv - Metal Kharkiv 3-0 game eight league fixtures ago, and only "under 2.5" for the away team since then!
