Olimpik Donetsk and Mariupol have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the 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!
Olimpik Donetsk form and stats

Valery Lobanovsky) is 2 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Olimpik Donetsk, their manager I. Klymovskyi and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Olimpik enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Kolos Kovalivka's place. The match ended 1-0 with Muyiwa Olabiran scoring. Preceding that match was a defeat to Desna (0-2).
