Zorya form and stats

As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Zorya, who have the most scored goals (15) away in Premier League, have produced an overall stat of 3-1-1 so far.

Two travels in a row for Zorya, whose manager V. Skripnik could celebrate last time after the Ukrainian Cup win against Rukh Vynnyky (after extra-time).

That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Kolos Kovalivka in the Premier League.

After this away game Zorya return home for a Europa Conference League game against CSKA Sofia. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Zorya alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (15 from 5 played). The Zorya manager V. Skripnik has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.
