Predictions & Betting Tips

Oleksandria can outscore Chornomorets

The Chornomorets Odessa are sitting at the bottom of the Premier League table after 29 games with 22 points, so this is obviously a very poor campaign for the Black and Whites. Manager Oleksandr Kucher has yet to find the formula to unlock his team’s potential since taking over in March 2025, but there are signs of life. According to our FC Chornomorets Odessa vs PFK Oleksandria prediction, this managerial change may have come too late to save their season. A 0-3 home defeat to Shakhtar Donetsk was followed by a surprise 2-1 away win over Vorskla and then last weekend’s 1-1 draw at home to Dynamo Kyiv. So the FC Chornomorets Odessa vs PFK Oleksandria prediction takes into account that Chornomorets have one win, one draw and three defeats from their previous five league games. Denys Yanakov is their biggest threat up front with five goals in 26 appearances this season, but Oleksiy Khoblenko has found a renewed source of goals with 3 in the last five games. Oleksandr Filippov is in double figures with 10 goals in 26 league appearances for PFK Oleksandria, who are in the thick of the title race in second spot on 66 points after 29 games. PFK Oleksandria have 8 wins, 3 draws and 3 defeats on the road this season, which is an average away record that is certainly respectable in the Ukrainian top flight. They have scored 16 goals on their travels which represents an average of 1.14 goals per game. For those seeking FC Chornomorets Odessa vs PFK Oleksandria betting tips, keep in mind Oleksandria's track record and attacking threat away from home.

Oleksandria are on the up

Ruslan Rotan has had an amazing impact on the club since taking over as head coach in December 2022. His gameplan of playing at a high tempo with a rotational attack and high pressing style has seen his team win four of their last five games. This FC Chornomorets Odessa vs PFK Oleksandria preview highlights the tactical contrast between both teams. They were unfortunate to lose 2-1 at Karpaty in their most recent away league game, but that followed a supremely confident 3-1 win at home to Veres Rivne. Tedi Cara has been on a blistering run of form with six goals in his last 5 games to make him the hottest hand in the Oleksandria attack. Chornomorets are a compact team that play with discipline and will look for chances to get out wide in numbers. Oleksandria will try to control games by pinning opponents back with their collective work rate and intensity. So this game could be decided by which side has more in the tank and the visitors certainly have momentum. Oleksandria have failed to win their last away game at Chornomorets, so this trip is not an easy one in their minds. Oleksandria are favoured to win by the bookmakers, which reflects the difference in their league positions and form, but we believe the visitors are worth a shot to take the points. This game has some extra spice because Chornomorets are battling to avoid relegation and Oleksandria are chasing the league title, so this FC Chornomorets Odessa vs PFK Oleksandria prediction suggests Oleksandria can win in a closely-contested game, and a bet on over 2.5 total match goals offers good value.
