Game Prediction
Monday may not delight with an abundance of football events, so it is worth paying attention to the clash between Zorya and Rukh Lviv, for which our analysts have prepared a match forecast.
The men can perform significantly better
Zorya is unmistakably underperforming in the current season, evident from their current penultimate position in the league table, placing them in the relegation zone. The situation is not yet critical, as they are only 4 points behind the 12th place, which is safe, and they have three games in hand. In the last round of the UPL, they suffered a defeat to debutant LNZ Cherkasy with a score of 1-2. The team is still active in the Conference League, where they recently lost away to Gent with a score of 1-4, diminishing their chances of advancing from the group stage.

A weak stretch for Rukh
The Lviv-based club is having a decent season overall, currently sitting in fifth place in the championship, a commendable result. However, Rukh is currently experiencing a downturn with only one victory in their last five encounters. In the last round, they were defeated by Kyiv's Dynamo with a score of 0-2. It might be premature to speak of a crisis, as the team has the potential to regain stability, although breaking into the top four will be a formidable task. Rukh is gradually progressing, and in the future, the club is capable of contending for higher positions.
