Oleksandria have only played one Premier League game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from 13 matches.

It's back home for Oleksandria, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Tavriya away with the result 3-1.

Heartbreak before that as Oleksandria lost 0-1 at Dynamo Kyiv's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Oleksandria have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won six times, drawn zero and lost two.

The Ukrainian Premier League is the highest division of football in Ukraine. It was created in 1991 as Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union. Twelve teams play each other twice in a 22 match regular season to create a league table. The table then splits in half resulting in a Championship round and a Relegation round, each playing ten more fixtures.
