FC Chernihiv vs Bukovyna tips and predictions

Visitors too short for this trip

It isn't a very popular view to go for the upset but Bukovyna just look too short. This isn't a mere formality.

FC Chernihiv supporters will look at Bukovyna's recent results for evidence that they are there for the taking. The last 9 fixtures have not all gone to plan for the away squad; they've lost 4 of them. To put your faith in this team you might have wanted a better set of results than this.

It won't surprise anyone to see them dismiss the challenge of FC Chernihiv but it's not a formality and a home win seems a reasonable suggestion.

FC Chernihiv will need to see that the visitors are complacent to boost their chances of victory. And they must not hesitate to take their chances. The home players are finding some form on their own patch. They have scored two or more times in 3 of their recent 4 home matches while their rearguard players have been backing up the frontline. They've only conceded an average of 1.0 goals across their last 3 games.

There have been periods when Bukovyna have lost their shape and they have lacked the fundamentals around their 18-yard box. They have conceded two or more times in 6 of their last 12 matches. Their supposed problems don't stop there. The visitors haven't really been able to depend on their goal-scorers lately. They've been goalless in 5 of their last 9 matches.

If the win is out of reach, they can pinch something here. Don't rule out seeing the hosts come away in stalemate. Bukovyna are the favourites and they'll be keen to keep it tidy in defence. The No BTTS bet seems fair.
