Another week with zero in the odds table… The biggest problem is that this is not the first time this fall. Ukraine is failing, and in this situation, competitors just need to take theirs.

Fortunately, they are in no hurry with this. Cyprus or Sweden could get ahead of Ukraine if they took the maximum. Competitors crept up, but did not catch up.
So, Sweden won one victory out of three possible. That is, it came closer by 0.5 points. Cyprus was content with the same thing – one victory out of three (two points, 0.5 points). All these factors do not lower Ukraine into the champion’s starting zone from the first qualifying round of the Champions League (23rd place), but they create additional pressure. The threat is becoming more and more acute.
Serbia pulled away this week. Quite significant. Neither of her teams lost. The win and draw gave a total of 0.6 points, which increased the overall gap in the table from Ukraine. Hungary came a little closer, but this is even good, because Ferencvaros played with Malmo – it was more important that the Swedes did not take points in this confrontation. Croatia and Slovakia this week – no changes relative to Ukraine. Most likely, relative to them, our position in the schedule will remain unchanged until the end of the season.
The next round for Ukraine looks more difficult than the previous two. Once again, both of our representatives will compete against people from top championships. The chances for the playoffs are getting smaller, so you just need to try (without pressure) to take some points, because the situation in the season ranking is deplorable. We are 34th here without much prospect of rising higher.
Before the end of this calendar year, Dynamo and Shakhtar will play one more match. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
