Virtually losing the chance to take away Shakhtar's title of the champion of Ukraine, Dynamo will try to win the second most important national trophy. And the fact that the people of Kiev will succeed in their desire, there are several reasons.

The first reason: the opportunity to complete the season is not empty-handed. Despite the fact that Dynamo still has theoretical chances to finish in the first place in the championship, everyone (and the people of Kiev) perfectly understand that this must be a miracle. However, to win the national Cup it is now enough to win only one match against Shakhtar, and this Dynamo has already succeeded this season.

The second reason: the desire to rehabilitate for a misfire with Mariupol, which actually put an end to the opportunity to win the championship. The home draw with Mariupol was a shock to all Dynamo fans, and for the players of the team too. But do not think that this result has plunged Kiev into the abyss of depression. Rather, on the contrary, it will be an additional incentive to rehabilitate the final match of the Cup of Ukraine.

The third reason: the mood for a principal rival It's no secret that Dynamo has established uneasy relations with Mariupol this season, but this "principled" confrontation is such only for the Azov, and the really irreconcilable rival of Kiev is Shakhtar. In the Ukrainian Clasico there is no room for compromise, and it is not necessary to customize the players. The mood for such fights is already beyond the limits.

Reason the fourth: the statistics of face-to-face meetings of the season In this season, Shakhtar managed to just beat Dynamo, and even then in the semi-official match for the Super Bowl. But in really important duels UPL "miners" in three attempts were able to take only one point - two defeats and a draw. In this case, wards Paulo Fonseca could not only win, but even score at least one goal in the gates of Kiev - 0: 1, 0: 0 and 0: 1.

Reason the fifth: the statistics in the final matches of the Cup of Ukraine Despite the fact that the number of won Cups of Ukraine from Dynamo and Shakhter is still equal - eleven trophies, when the grants of Ukrainian football met in the finals, great successes were achieved by the Kyivites - five titles against four.

Reason Six: Dynamo approaches the finals without personnel losses On the eve of the Ukrainian Cup final in the team of Alexander Khatskevich there is no loss - all the players in the ranks and ready for another principled confrontation. Before the match with Mariupol, Kadar and Sidorchuk returned, and now they recovered from the injuries that missed the meeting with the Azovites Garmash and Buyalsky.

There are, however, reasons why Dynamo may not succeed in the final of the Cup of Ukraine.

Reason one: the opponent's attitude It's not worth mentioning that Shakhtar is tuned to Dynamo as well as Dynamo to Shakhtar, that's why everything will depend on who will peak on the indicator of "sporting anger" at the right time and will not burn at the same time.

The second reason: the general statistics Dynamo and Shakhtar played 82 games in all tournaments. 28 meetings ended in favor of Kiev, 31 victory in the asset "miners", the difference scored and conceded goals - 99: 106.
