Kharkiv have won 4 of their 5 home league matches, conceding just two goals in them. They make good use of home advantage and rarely allow opponents to dictate play.

High-Risk Bet
In five home matches this season, Kharkiv have conceded just twice - an average of 0.4 goals per game. Over a longer period, that figure stands at 0.5.

Safer Bet
Karpaty covered the (+1.5) handicap in 24 consecutive away matches. In the current league campaign, the Lviv side have suffered just one defeat in five away games.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
A comparison of form and goalscoring clearly points to Kharkiv as the stronger side: they are winning convincingly, scoring plenty and making few defensive mistakes. Recent statistics support the trend of the hosts scoring at least once: their attack has been consistently effective in recent matches. There is still a long way to go in the competition, so the pressure to get a result is not at its peak, allowing Kharkiv to play freely and make the most of their attacking potential. Correct score prediction: 1-0. Main prediction: Kharkiv to win.
