17:00, Alexandria, Nick's Stadium. Referee - Yuri Grisio. Live webcast on Football Channel 2.
Even without confrontation between Dynamo and Shakhtar in the reporting round, a lot of interesting matches. One of the most important matches will take place in Alexandria, where the local club will take Olympique. If you take out the Ukrainian Clasico for the brackets, then this match can be considered central in the tour.
In the last round, Alexandria lost to Chernomorets and finally unleashed the fight for the European Cups between the three clubs. Odessites equaled to Alexandria, approached Olympique at a distance of one point and now have the right to count on higher places. It seems that the fate of the permit to the Europa League will be decided just in the face-to-face matches of these three teams.
It can be safely said that Alexandria and Olympique are in bad shape. Both clubs for the last five rounds took only three points. Wards Sanzhara and did have to postpone two consecutive defeats with a score of 0: 4 - from Dynamo and Miner.
Donetsk club will go on an away match with serious personnel problems. Accurately miss the match Partvaniya - the restoration of the defender was delayed and he will return in about a month. In doubt for the match Grishko, who was injured in a match with Shakhtar, but may be in time to recover. Continues to be in the infirmary and Vitaly Gemega.
Alexandria staffing is gradually coming to order. So, in a match with Dynamo Sharan could not count on ten players at once. Now only two players - Kulish and Gitchenko missed the match with Chernomorets and there is no news about their return to service.
There is a suspicion that the outcome of this match will leave more questions rather than answers about the tournament prospects of the teams.
Approximate compositions:.
Alexandria: Novak - Siminin, Shendrik, Basov, Tsurikov - Banada, Zaporozhian - Starenky, Grytsuk, Chorniy - Ponomarev Olympic: Makharadze - Oleinik, Illoy-Ayet, Fedoriv, ??Nemchaninov - Goshkoderya, Bogdanov - Grin, Postadilenko, Shestakov - Matyazh Injured: Kulish, Gitchenko - Parting, Doronin, Gemega In doubt: Grishko (Olimpic) forecast 1: 1.
