This is crucial for any FC Obolon Kiev vs Metalist 1925 betting tips.
• Metalist 1925 are a different proposition this season to the one that Obolon Kiev fans are used to, as Mladen Bartulović has transformed the club into a front-foot team that plays at high-tempo, presses aggressively, and often tries to overload the flanks and surge into the second half.
• The FC Obolon Kiev vs Metalist 1925 prediction is influenced by Metalist 1925's average of 1.25 goals scored and just 0.75 per away game conceded in the Premier League 2025/2026, and so their superior defensive discipline should see them through.

Key Players

• Denys Antyukh:
  • Metalist 1925’s Denys Antyukh is the danger man for the visitors, scoring 3 Premier League 2025/2026 goals in 12 appearances, while he has also scored half of Metalist 1925’s last four goals.
• Serhii Sukhanov:
  • Obolon’s Serhii Sukhanov is their main attacking option, with four goals in 14 Premier League 2025/2026 appearances, but the game will not suit them as well as it should.
