Kryvbass This year, Kryvbass does not look like such a monolithic team as last season. There was a certain confidence and strength in that team, which is lacking in the current campaign. Perhaps the perception is influenced by the early exit from the European Cups, in which “Kryvbass” did not show itself from the best side.

Or maybe the personnel situation had an effect – the main center back Beskorovainy moved to “Polesye” (where he immediately received a serious injury), due to personal circumstances, the defender Ilich was absent from the team (although he recently joined the team, but he is unlikely to be ready to play right away) , the second central defender Stetskov quarreled with the management due to the desire to move to another club and was removed from the first team, the forward Prince Adu was sold. Before that, almost the main asset of the Dybango team was seriously injured, but this happened almost a few days ago.

Yury Vernydub did not appreciate the summer newcomers too well, saying that only Romanchuk and Drambaev played normally. Of course, they came in handy – the first one plays steadily, and the second one is a lifesaver, plugging all the holes in the team and appearing not on the flank of attack or defense, but in the center of defense, but it is unlikely that other performers were happy with such an assessment of their abilities. One of the newcomers, Oche Ochovechy, has already left the team, going to the Azerbaijani “Gabala”.

However, the results did not deteriorate too much – only one defeat in five matches with one draw and three victories allow them to stay in the group of leaders. And, of course, the game with Shakhtar, which was not played because of the air strike due to the shelling of the north-eastern neighbor misunderstanding, is stuck in the head, which will be played at an unknown date.

Vorskla “Vorskla” is unlikely to seriously think about relegation, but the team is unlikely to win European Cups either. At least two draws, wins and losses in six matches and a goal difference of 7-9 are not indicators of a team with serious ambitions, so “Vorsklian” are in the quagmire of the middle of the tournament table.

The usual not very good personnel situation of the Poltava team worsened before the report match. Experienced defenseman Sklyar received his next red card in his career and will not help the team against Kryvbass, and the second player in the center of the field, Yevgeny Pavlyuk, was injured and will not play either.

In the middle of the week, “Vorskla” played a postponed match of the 5th round against “Dynamo”, lost 1:3 and suffered another personnel loss – the center back Gucek left the field with a bloodied face, it is not known whether he will play against “Kryvbass”.

Also, the game was remembered for the terrible lawn, which is hardly worthy of UPL teams playing on it (although this long-suffering UPL did not see any puddles and, figuratively, fences, which the football players used to mix at different times), as well as Pavlo Isenko’s blunder, which once gave great hope, but now it somehow died out.

Match statistics A total of 43 matches were played: +18=13-12, goal difference 52-44 in favor of Kryvbass.

Indicative compositions: “Kryvbass”: Klischuk – Bandeira, Romanchuk, Drambaev, Kuzyk – Bizymana, Vakulko – Jean Poe, Lunev, Mykytyshyn – Sosa

“Vorskla”: Isenko – Perduta, Chernomorets, Khrypchuk, Krupsky – Chelyadyn, Kulakovsky, Chernysh – Myakushko, Iede, Kane

Forecast for the confrontation: Kryvyi Rih don’t look as confident as last season, but they should still take their three points.
