Vorskla Poltava
DDWLLL 📉
Vorskla Poltava will be looking to improve on their last outing here after the 0-2 Premier League losing effort in their last game against Polissya Zhytomyr.
In that game, Vorskla Poltava had 43% possession and 6 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. For their opponents, Polissya Zhytomyr got 16 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. Tomer Yosefi (90') was the scorer for Polissya Zhytomyr.
Fewer than three goals per game were seen in 5 of the past 6 fixtures where Vorskla Poltava have taken part. Regarding the goal attribution in that period, their opponents scored a total of 6 and Vorskla Poltava got themselves 3. It will be interesting to see whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.
Looking at the pre-match facts, Vorskla Poltava:
- have left without a victory over Oleksandria in their last 2 league matches.
- are without a home win in the past 7 league matches. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

Prediction
We’re of the view that Vorskla Poltava may well find it hard to register a score against this Oleksandria outfit who will likely score & stay on top.
We’re therefore tipping a hard-fought 0-1 win for Oleksandria at the end of this game.
Should be a close one.
