A strong away win before that one, visiting Metalist 1925 Kharkiv and winning 2-1.

W W L W W

Oleksandria form and stats

The Oleksandria goalkeeper Mykyta Shevchenko is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 336 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Oleksandria had fun at their own home (Stadion Livyy Bereh) last time out, beating Metalist 1925 Kharkiv 1-0. Shulianskyi scored.

Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Hirnyk.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Oleksandria manager Rotan as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Zorya.

Twelve teams play each other twice in a 22 match regular season to create a league table.
