Preview

Match preview

FC Kharkiv welcome Livyi Bereh in round nine of the Premier League, looking to strengthen their standing near the top of the table. The hosts occupy fourth place with 15 points from seven matches, having found the net 14 times while conceding only five. Their recent league run features four victories across their last five matches, including three wins from four outings on home soil.

Livyi Bereh enter this encounter sitting in 12th position with seven points from seven matches. Their campaign has been defined by defensive resilience and low-scoring contests, accumulating four draws and conceding just six goals in total. Away from home, they have proven stubborn, allowing only two goals across four fixtures, but their attack has generated just five goals all season.

Previous competitive clashes point towards a tight affair. FC Kharkiv edged both Premier League meetings in 2025 by identical 1-0 margins. Given Livyi Bereh's defensive away record and FC Kharkiv's stingy home backline that has allowed just 0.3 goals per game, scoring chances are likely to be at a premium.

Confidence

FC Kharkiv sit fourth in the Premier League table after picking up 15 points from seven matches, driven largely by solid form at home where they have won three of four fixtures and conceded just once. Livyi Bereh have struggled for victories, winning just one of their seven league games while recording four draws. Although the visitors have been compact on their travels, conceding only two goals across four away fixtures, their modest return of five goals all season leaves them with limited attacking punch to secure all three points. With FC Kharkiv having won both competitive league meetings between the sides in 2025 by 1-0 scorelines, backing the hosts to take at least a point offers strong alignment with both teams current form.
