Third-placed Karpaty Lviv travel to Kovalivka looking to close a two-point gap on the league leaders, while Kolos enter the weekend 15th and inside the relegation zone.
Kolos Kovalivka are still searching for their first win of the campaign, currently sitting 15th with 26 games remaining to climb out of the relegation zone. However, there are signs of life in the squad following a spirited 2-2 draw away at Kryvbas KR last time out, halting a run of consecutive defeats against Dynamo Kyiv and Zorya Luhansk.
Karpaty are firmly in the title race, trailing the leaders by just two points with 25 games left to play. Their momentum took a slight hit recently with a 2-1 loss to Shakhtar Donetsk and a 1-1 draw with Livyi Bereh, but a previous run of three straight wins—scoring ten goals in the process—underlines their threat as the division's form side.
