Veres must fight to retain its status
The Rivne-based club cannot boast high standings, currently occupying the 14th position in the championship, which is currently in the relegation playoff zone. However, Zorya, trailing by a point with two games in hand, could surpass them. In the last fixture, Veres narrowly defeated Metalist 1925, playing in a numerical majority from the 9th minute and securing victory only in the 90th minute, with a final score of 4:3. This mentioned success halted a series of eight winless matches in the championship.
