Ukraine hosts the Finland match of the group "I" qualifying for the World Cup in 2018 in Russia. The match will be played on Saturday, November 12 from 21:45 at the stadium "Chernomorets" in Odessa.
The national team of Ukraine took third place in group "I" with a total of five points after one win and two draws in the first three rounds. They are two points behind leaders Croatia and Iceland, which have seven. Finnish team again ranks fifth with one point, while Turkey is in front of them to post more, while Kosovo also occupies last place with one point, but worse goal-difference from Finland.
Ukraine started the qualifying cycle with draws against Iceland (1: 1) and Turkey (2: 2). These results show that the team has overcome the shock of poor performance at Euro 2016. But then came the classic success with 3: 0 over Kosovo and old can be described as good for the Ukrainian team.
In qualifying for the European Championship Ukraine recorded four wins and two losses. They beat no trouble weaker teams like Belarus and Luxembourg, but against Spain and Slovakia failed to score and lost minimal. Finland against Andriy Shevchenko and his boys are not entitled to a mistake to stay with good chances in the first two places in the group.
Finland will win more than a year. The last time they won 1: 0 against the Faroe Islands in qualification for Euro 2016. The negative series certainly weighs on the team and they hardly go to greater confidence in Ukraine. In their last five games Finns lost four times. In the World Cup qualifiers gave Croatia (0: 1) and Iceland (2: 3) and against Kosovo home winning point after a draw 1: 1.
There is no doubt that the hosts are favorite to win the match. I think that Ukraine is quite the class team and will have no problems against Finland. Fully probably Ukrainians take advance yet to break, and therefore win the match.
