On Sunday, the game day of the 11th round of the Ukrainian Premier League will begin with a match in Uzhgorod, where Minay will host Chernihiv Desna. We present to your attention the forecast for this meeting.
"Minai"
The Foxes completely failed after the September international break, earning only one point in four rounds, as well as being eliminated from the Ukrainian Cup. Before the last round, Minay fired Vasily Kobin from the post of head coach, but this did not help the team, which lost to Metallist-1925 on the road (0:1). Igor Leonov, who had no experience in this position for more than two years, became the new coach of the Minais.
"Gum"
Chernihiv residents also did not spend the last month in the best way. After the September holidays, they also gave out two good matches, having drawn away with Vorskla (2:2), and beating Rukh at home (1:0). But after that, Alexander Ryabokon's team flew out of the Ukrainian Cup from Metalist (1:2), after which they lost twice in the championship – on their own field to Metallist-1925 (1:2) and on the road to Zara (0:2).
Statistics and figures
- Minay has a 9-match winless streak (3 draws + 6 defeats), with the last 4 matches being lost;
- "Minay" lost only 1 match out of four home games played this season, but also won only once;
- Last season, Minay and Desna exchanged home wins in head-to-head matches;
- "Desna" has won only 1 match out of the last seven, losing 5 times;
- In six of the last eight matches of Desna, the Total bet was more than 2.5;
- Desna has a 4-match winless streak in away matches (1 draw + 3 defeats), conceding at least two goals in each of them.
Forecast
It is hard to believe in the prospects of "Minaya" with Igor Leonov. "Desna" has a more balanced and high-quality selection of performers, and during the second international break, Chernihiv had to work fruitfully on mistakes.
