Vadym Shakhraichuk’s team is set to face their opponents, who currently hold the sixth position in the tournament table.
This will be the third time the two teams meet in the championship and the fourth time in their overall history. Undoubtedly, Capitals are considered the favorites for this match taking place in Vinnytsia. In the previous three meetings, Pavlo Legachev’s team managed to score two goals against the team from Kyiv (both during the cup match). As for the Capitals, they scored 30 times during these three games.
However, the team from Kharkiv received some good news today. Sokil was handed a technical defeat in their match against Berserks due to the use of an undisclosed player in their lineup. This development has halted the long string of defeats for the Kharkiv team. The consequences of this turn of events have significantly impacted both levels of the tournament table. Currently, Pavlo Legachev’s team is now only two points behind Tryzub, while Sokil holds a one-point advantage over Capitals.
At the same time, Vadym Shakhraichuk’s team is well aware of the consequences that can arise from not the best adjustments. A recent game against Tryzub serves as a prime example, where the Capitals were forced to make a comeback and ultimately secured victory thanks to game-winning goals scored in the final minutes. This demonstrates the significance of maintaining focus and aiming for a positive outcome, particularly given the tight standings in the table. Furthermore, it is worth noting that the upcoming matches will also provide an opportunity for the young hockey players of our club to receive more playing time. They are eager to showcase their skills on the ice and contribute to the team’s success.
It is important to mention that the 13th round will commence today with the Kyiv derby between Tryzub and Sokil. The round will then conclude on Thursday with an intense confrontation between Kremenchuk and Dnipro.
