It's game two of the Premier League season and everything to play for. Read our full preview of Vorskla-Rukh Vynnyky!

Vorskla and Rukh Vynnyky should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

These teams have little in common geographically as Rukh Vynnyky have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Vorskla form and stats

Last season, Vorskla's league statistics were 11 wins, 8 draws and 7 losses, resulting in a 5th position in the Premier League. Over these 26 matches they scored 37 goals and conceded 30. Playing at home last season Vorskla managed 7-3-3 (win-draw-lost) with 25 goals and 16 conceded. A Premier League draw at home so far for Vorskla. Last season their home statistics were 7 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats from 13 matches.

The home supporters saw a 2-2 draw versus Dnipro-1 in the Premier League last time out and are looking for a win here.

Before that match, a win away at Minai.

Rukh Vynnyky form and stats

Let's have a look at how Rukh Vynnyky performed last season in the Persha Liga: They landed a 10th position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 10 draws and 10 defeats. In total they scored 27 and conceded 39 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 5 and lost 6 with 11/23 goals scored/conceded. Rukh Vynnyky have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Premier League were 2 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats from 13 fixtures.

Vynnyky lost away at Metalist 1925 Kharkiv (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

Before that, Vynnyky secured a home win against Olimpik Donetsk with the score 3-0.

We have checked recent matches where Vynnyky have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those six games were one victory, four draws and one defeat.

It's early days yet, but Rukh Vynnyky has scored 1 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last two meetings between these two teams are: one win for Vorskla, one draw and zero wins for Rukh Vynnyky. Over 2,5 goals: one time; under 2,5 goals: one game.

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.
