And again “Dawn” has to play in a context of defeat in the Europa League and thinking about the next match of the European Cup. In conditions of limited human resources, Viktor Skripnik has to solve quite difficult tasks. On the other hand, for whom is it easy now? Having tested the role of a team that has passed the status of the middle peasant, it must correspond to the declared level. Is Zarya doing it now? It is difficult to say. “Rukh” won a week ago in large part thanks to the elimination of the opponent. The “Ingulets”, who defend themselves even better than the residents of Lviv, may not offer such a preference. Then we will understand if the people of Lugansk have enough class and character to win on an extremely difficult calendar.
FIGURES AND FACTS
- “Zarya” and “Ingulets” are not far from each other in the rankings. Residents of Lugansk remain 9th (9 points in the asset), “Ingulets” – 11th (5 points). In the last round, Zorya defeated Rukh 4: 0, while Ingulets drew 1: 1 with Mariupol.
- In official matches, the rivals met once, in the semi-final of the Ukrainian Cup of the 2018/2019 season. Then Petrov’s team, in the status of the representative of the First League, won a sensational victory with a score of 2: 1.
- This season, Zorya and Ingulets met twice in test matches. In August, the Lugansk team won 3: 1, and in October a match tie was recorded 3: 3.
- At Zorya’s request, the match will take place not in Kropyvnytskyi, where Ingulets plays at home, but in Zaporozhye. Skripnik’s team has won 5 points out of a possible 12 at the Slavutich Arena this season. Ingulets once walked away and lost twice.
- Petrivtsi never won at UPL, in seven fights he tied five times.
- Vladislav Kochergin is one of the leaders in this season’s bombing race. He has four goals on his account. In “Inguls”, striker Sitchinava and right-back Balan each scored two goals.
- Ingulets hired two players from Zarya: Denis Yanakov and Vladimir Belotserkovts. The Lugansk club allowed both to participate in this game.
- Both teams have a disqualified player: Vitaly Pavlov will not play for Ingulets (at least, the UPL website provides such information), for Zorya – Lovro Tsvek.
ORIENTATION FORMULATIONS
In the game against “Mariupol”, “Ingulets” did not include several players, in particular, Kucherenko and Sitchinava. It’s hard to say if they will be this time. If not, Niku will be replaced by Momol again. Semenko will be in the center alongside Kovalev, and Lupashko, Zaporozhets and Bartulovich will form a triangle in midfield.
Shust – Balan, Semenko, Kovalev, Kvassny – Lupashko – Kovalenko, Bartulovich, Zaporozhets, Yanakov – Mkomola
Viktor Skrypnik can use the rotation to give the point guard a rest. In particular, Tsiganiks will replace Khomchenovsky on the left, Abu Hannah is actually the only option for Vernidub partners, on the right we can see Rufati. With the midfield, the situation is more complicated: instead of Kochergin or Yurchenko, Grin may appear, but hardly. Well, we expect new players in the attack. We may see a pair of Sayadmanesh – Gladky.
Vasil – Rufati, Vernidub, Abu Hanna, Gypsy – Ivanisenya, Nazarina, Kochergin – Yurchenko – Gladky, Sayadmanesh
MATCH INGULETS FORECAST – ZARYA 1: 1
Formally, Zarya is the favorite. However, “Ingulets” organizes the defense quite well, in addition, we do not exclude the rotation in the Luhansk team. At the end of the day, but the base needs to rest and move away emotionally from the failure in the match with “Braga”. And Skripnik has no equivalent replacement for the leading players. Thus, we conclude that the Ingulets will not be able to lose today.
