All eventualities are possible here so tread carefully when assessing this one. The suspicion is that this will be tight. A goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

Meanwhile FSC Mariupol have been impressive defensively on the road. They have conceded an average of 0.6 goals per game over their last 10 matches away from home.

In previous matches in this head-to-head the last 3 have all ended on level terms.

Maybe things fail to ignite as the match is likely to be tight. Should it play out as many expect then the No BTTS bet could be sensible. How about the total goals? Well it's Under 2.5 picked as the best play considering the odds on offer.

Prykarpattya have drawn 8 of their last 19 matches. Further, FSC Mariupol have drawn 6 of their last 12 away games. It's not a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to be nervous about but the draw is food for thought. Deadlock is the pick after what will probably be a tightly contested match-up.
