Ukraine (Z) – Portugal (Z). Forecast and announcement for the Golden Eurolege match

On Friday, June 6 at 23:00, the Volleyball Women’s Team will hold its third match in the Golden Euroliz-2025. After two bright victories over Spain (3: 1) and Montenegro (3: 1), the Ukrainians will meet with the Portugal team, which has not yet won a single victory in the tournament. For our national team, this is a chance to consolidate a successful start, and for the new head coach Yakub Glushak is another opportunity to check the team under pressure from official matches.

Ukraine The first matches against Spain and Montenegro confirmed the potential of the renovated national team of Ukraine. The team went well into the game, acted effectively on the block and in defense, and key players took responsibility at decisive moments. Particularly confident were the Ukrainians on the block and in the attack, including artist, chimney and kotar, who scored the most points.

Despite the updated composition and loss of one set in each match, blue and yellow remain one of the favorites of the group and the classes are markedly outweighed. This match should be the opportunity for Ukrainian women to get a maximum of points without losing set, which can later be a decisive factor in the standings. A few days have passed since the last game, so it was time for the coaching staff and the players to analyze the game, draw conclusions and arrange the game process and composition.

Portugal The Portuguese team can not boast successful results at this time – it has lost both start matches against Romania and Sweden without much resistance. The wards of the sills are in search of the optimal game model, but are still faced with problems in reception and defense, which complicates the fight against stronger rivals. The motivation for the match against Ukraine will be high, because the defeat in the next match will virtually make it impossible to further struggle for high positions.

Meeting statistics The national teams of Ukraine and Portugal have met at least seven times at the official level, and in all cases the victory was celebrated by Ukrainians. At the same time, Portugal never managed to win more than one set – the score was always no more than 3: 1. The last match took place in 2022 as part of the qualification to the European Championship, where the Ukrainians won a dry victory of 3: 0. The two previous meetings also ended with confident victories of Ukraine with a similar account.

Forecast Ukraine approaches this match in the status of a clear favorite – both by name and the level of the game demonstrated at the start of the tournament. Yakub Glushak’s wards have already shown the strengths of the updated game model, and if they can keep the concentration throughout the match and avoid characteristic failures in the middle of the sets, then the chances of the second consecutive victory will be as high as possible.

Portugal is likely to resist more than in meetings against Romania and Sweden, but the general class, the depth of the composition and stability of the game are currently significantly on the side of Ukraine. The main task is not to let rivals impose a chaotic game and from the first draws to impose their own pace, as it was in previous duels.

Forecast: Victory of Ukraine with a score of 3-0
