Oleksandriya vs Veres: match preview
Oleksandriya are rooted to the bottom of the table and have just 12 points after 23 matches. The side trail the team in 14th place, the position that grants access to the relegation play-off, by eight points. Closing that gap will be extremely difficult, especially considering Oleksandriya’s current form. Across their last six matches, they have picked up points only once, drawing 3-3 with Poltava. Their last victory came back in September 2025.
Veres were beaten 4-0 by Metalist 1925 in their previous outing and, overall, have managed just one win in recent matches. However, after 23 rounds they have 26 points and sit in tenth place. Their cushion above the relegation zone currently stands at five points with seven rounds remaining. That means Veres have not secured safety yet. Still, their situation is far from the worst, and they have every chance of preserving their top-flight status in Ukraine.
Probable line-ups
- Oleksandriya: Shevchenko, Miguel Campos, Behiratche, Ndicka Matam, Skorko, Shostak, Kozak, Myshnov, Mateus Amaral, Cara, Juan Alvina
- Veres: Kozhukhar, Honcharenko, Protasevych, Vovchenko, Dakhnovskyi, Iago Siqueira, Morozko, Klots, Mrvaljević, Sharay, Stepaniuk
Prediction
Both teams need a result, as nothing has been decided yet, so we should expect a tense contest. However, it is unlikely to be a high-scoring affair. The recommended bet is under 2.5 goals.
