Dnipro-1 is crumbling before our eyes. For Dnipro-1, this are already the third European competition of the season. They started with the Champions League qualification, where they lost to Panathinaikos – 1-3 at home and 2-2 away. Then in the Europa League qualifiers, they were defeated by Prague's Slavia – 0-3 away and 1-1 in the return leg. Like other Ukrainian clubs, they have to play their home matches on neutral grounds. Dnipro-1 have faced several issues, having sold their leader Artem Dovbyk to Girona. Additionally, the head coach Alexander Kucher resigned, leading to the departure of several staff members. Playing their best under such circumstances will be extremely challenging. In the Ukrainian Premier League, the team has accumulated 4 points from three matches.
Initially, bookmakers didn't favor either side in this matchup, but now the hosts' chances of success are more preferable due to the chaos within the opponent's camp. Dnipro-1 are struggling to find stability, and there's no expectation of improvement after the departure of the coach. We consider a bet on Spartak Trnava's victory with a 0.0 handicap to be reasonable.
Prediction for the match: Trnava to win with 0.0 handicap.
