Monday in the Ukrainian Premier League (UPL) is set to feature three matches, including Zorya Luhansk against Vorskla Poltava. Find the match prediction on our website.
Zorya Luhansk
By Ukrainian football standards, Zorya is considered a solid club, having often challenged the league leaders and participated in European competitions. Given these characteristics, it's unusual to see the team among the outsiders, currently occupying the 14th position, which is within the relegation playoff zone. They are trailing the 12th spot by three points, with 2-3 games in hand compared to their competitors. Before the break, the team experienced a five-match winless streak. Considering their weak performances, the break could have served as an opportunity for a sort of season restart.
Vorskla Poltava
After 17 rounds, the club from Poltava sits seventh in the Ukrainian championship standings. However, competing for European qualification will be challenging, as they are eight points adrift from the top quartet. The team headed into the break in good spirits, having gone unbeaten in six consecutive UPL matches. Vorskla continues their quest in the Ukrainian Cup, having reached the semifinals, where they will face the ambitious Polissya side.
Interesting Match Facts and Head-to-Head History
In the first leg, Zorya managed to snatch an away victory with a scoreline of 2-1, despite the match being played without spectators. The teams often exchange goals, with this outcome occurring in four out of the last five head-to-head meetings.
Zorya Luhansk vs Vorskla Poltava Predictuon
The factor of home advantage in the UPL is no longer significant, as hosts often play on neutral ground, and matches take place without fans for safety reasons, although gradual fan attendance is planned. Zorya is given a slight edge, although we anticipate a contest between evenly matched opponents. We consider a wager on both teams to score as viable here.
