“Dnepr-1”: latest news

Dnipro are in excellent playing shape. After Yuri Maksimov joined the team, the Dnipro team won 8 victories in the championship. And only once during this period did Dnepr-1 lose to Krivoy Rog Krivbass away with a score of 0:3.

Otherwise, everything is going absolutely fine for the current vice-champion. The Dnieper team scores a lot and allows very little to be created at their goal.

In the last round, Dnepr-1 made a spectacular comeback and sensationally beat Shakhtar. Dnipro took revenge on the Donetsk team for last year’s decisive defeat and defeated the Pitmen with a score of 3:1. Maksimov’s team not only demonstrates a solid level of skill, but also has character.

The Dnieper team is now acting as a single mechanism and seems to have a fairly large margin of safety compared to other leaders of the current campaign. In all respects, the Chernomorets test should not become something critical for Dnepr-1.

Approximate composition of “Dnepr-1”: Volynets, Adamyuk, Svatok, Sarapiy, Myroshnychenko, Hutsuliak, Babenko, Rubchinsky, Lednev, Pykhalenok, Filippov.

“Chernomorets”: latest news

On the contrary, Odessa residents have been in a storm lately. “Chernomorets” shows both a variable level of play and very unstable results. In particular, in the last 5 rounds, the “sailors” won only one victory – at home over the absolute outsider of the championship “Minay”. There was also a goalless draw with Zorya Lugansk and three defeats. Roman Grigorchuk’s team lost to Krivoy Rog “Krivbass” (0:1), Kharkov “Metalist 1925” and Lviv “Rukh” (2:3).

Moreover, the last two were recorded in the last two rounds. And in fact from direct competitors in the standings. It is difficult to say exactly what exactly the team from Odessa is missing. But it would be hard to call Grigorchuk’s team hopeless. Probably, a little bit of everything is missing: somewhere there is a lack of implementation, somewhere football luck is not on the side of the “sailors” and questionable decisions of the referees.

The Sailors are in a difficult psychological situation. Although, what better time than in a game against the championship leader to rehabilitate yourself and regain faith in your own strength? It will be very difficult, but the residents of Odessa will definitely be able to give a fight to Maximov’s charges.

Approximate composition of “Chernomorets”: Varkuta, Bragaru, Guchek, Salyuk, Ermakov, Vasiliev, Shporn, Kuzyk, Stogrin, Avagimyan, Badibanga.

“Dnepr-1” – “Chernomorets”. Forecast for the match from UA-Football

Victory 2:1. Dnipro are the undisputed favorite of this pair. Bookmakers also give a clear preference to Yuri Maximov’s team. Moreover, the game will take place at the home arena of the current vice-champion. Yes, the “sailors” are in a certain crisis, but we shouldn’t discount Roman Grigorchuk’s charges. Odessa residents will be able to put up a fight, most likely they will even score. But it will be very difficult to win.

This forecast is only one of the possible scenarios; it does not guarantee winning.
