Lviv U21 form and stats
Overall Youth League stats at home this season for Lviv U21 are 4-1-5 (wins-draw-losses). It's trouble wherever Lviv are playing these days as they have suffered six straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Desna U21 form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Desna U21, who have the fewest scored goals (4) away in Youth League, so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 2-1-7 (win-draw-lose). Desna are desperate to end a 13-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Minai U21 fixture.
