Obolon Kiev vs Metalist 1925 Kharkiv

The Ukrainian Premier League follow-up this week will present a match between the Obolon of Kiev to entertain Metalist. This match will be held at the Obolon ‘Arena, besides this season they have also met 2 times. Where the first meeting took place in the first round then when playing at the headquarters of Metalist and Obolan Kiev narrowly won 0-1 while the second meeting in the Ukrainian Cup Metalist also avenged their previous defeat by winning 2-0.

But the retaliation for the defeat still seems unsatisfied, because Metalist considers it their turn to win at the Obolon Kiev headquarters. Meanwhile for the standings, the hosts are ranked 6th in the standings with a score of 9 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses. Interesting enough because the Kiev Obolon still has 1 match compared to the Metalist who have played 18 matches.

Metalist was ranked second in the standings after getting 12 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. 6 points adrift with Obolon Kiev made the match quite prestigious, besides that in the last match yesterday Metalist got the result of losing again which was humiliated 1-2 at home to Dnipro-1. Although he had won 1-0 first but the situation immediately turned around.

Obviously the match was very disappointing, because Metalist on 29 minutes only played 10 players after D. Grankin got a red card. As a result failed to cut the distance with the top standings. As for Obolan Kiev the match was delayed against Zirka, but until yesterday’s match day 17 Obolon Kiev and Metalist both played very well and also won consecutive wins in several matches. But for the chance of victory, it seems that it sided with Metalists considering the different ratings and also the Ukraine Cup yesterday.
