Kick-off: November 22, 2025, 16:00 UTC (19:00 MSK) Stadium: Obolon Arena, Kyiv Competition: Ukrainian Premier LeagueObolon Kyiv vs Shakhtar Donetsk: Match Preview
The teams approach this match from opposite ends of the league table. Shakhtar confidently leads the UPL table, displaying powerful attacking football. Obolon, on the other hand, is in a desperate fight for survival, currently in the relegation play-off zone. The head-to-head history is entirely in favor of the 'Miners,' who have won all four previous encounters without conceding a single goal.
Team Form and Analysis
Obolon Kyiv
The 'Brewers,' under Valeriy Ivashchenko, rely on physical football, commitment, and set pieces. At home, Obolon always puts up a gritty and resilient fight. However, a lack of class and top-flight experience is a major issue. Against the league leaders, the hosts are likely to adopt a deep defensive strategy.
Shakhtar Donetsk
The 'Miners' are in good form and will be looking to secure another three points to solidify their lead. The team boasts the most potent attack in the league, led by Danylo Sikan and Lassina Traoré. Despite a tight schedule and potential fatigue after the international break, the squad depth allows the coaching staff to rotate without a significant drop in quality. Shakhtar will aim to dominate from the first minutes.
Predicted Starting Lineups
Official lineups will be confirmed one hour before kick-off.
- Obolon (5-4-1): Rybka; Prokopenko, Karas, Pryimak, Lukianchuk, Osman; Medynskyi, Moroz, Chernenko, Hrusha; Taranukha.
- Shakhtar (4-1-4-1): Riznyk; Konoplia, Bondar, Matviyenko, Azarov; Stepanenko; Zubkov, Bondarenko, Sudakov, Kevin; Sikan.
Match Prediction by tutsport.net
Shakhtar are the undisputed favorites for this contest. The difference in class, current form, and head-to-head statistics make a victory for the Donetsk club the most likely outcome. It will be extremely difficult for Obolon to offer any resistance to the champions.

- Total Goals Prediction: Shakhtar to Win to Nil. Obolon has never in its history scored against Shakhtar. Given the difference in class, the 'Miners' are likely to prevent their opponent from scoring.
