Referee – Kostiantyn Trukhanov (Kharkiv)
Assistant referees – Oleh Pluzhnyk (Kharkiv), Denys Shudryk (Simferopol)
Fourth official – Yaroslav Kozyk (Mukacheve)
Referee observer – Mykhailo Ovchar (Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast)
Opponents
Chornomorets close the top five sides in the league table. The team of Oleksandr Babich started with three defeats, dramatically improving their performance later. From the 4th to the 11th round, the Odessans never lost, thus making a big leap and catching up with the leading pack.
Last weekend, in the home match against Vorskla, Chornomorets were initially ahead, but then concede a brace by Yuri Kolomoyets and suffered a defeat. The advantage over Poltava reduced to three points, with Olimpik just breathing down the Sailors’ necks.
We want to point out that Chornomorets did not play in the middle of the week due to their being knocked out of the Ukrainian Cup at the Round of 32 stage.
