Prediction: 0-2
Ukraine
Ukraine will look to overtake Italy in second place in Group C when they take on Malta at Ta’Qali National Stadium on Tuesday evening. The Ukrainians face a must-win situation as Italy have one game in hand and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the rock-bottom side. Barring any fresh injury worries, Sergiy Rebrov is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated North Macedonia 2-0 on Saturday.
Malta, on the other hand, are having a qualifying campaign to forget, with the team losing each of their five group games and given their poor goal difference of 1:15, we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from the match. When the two teams met at City Arena Trnava earlier in the process Ukraine defeated Malta thanks to Viktor Tsygankov’s goal from the penalty spot.
Highlighted Team (Ukraine):
After the country had gained independence from the Soviet Union, Ukraine played their first international match in 1992, and they have come a long way since. Zbirna have only once played at the World Cup finals so far, and they did really well to reach the quarter-finals in 2006, while they co-hosted the Euro 2012 with Poland, albeit failing to get past the group stage.
The generation that secured qualification for the Euro 2016 finals in France is arguably the most talented ever, with Yevhen Konoplyanka, Andriy Yarmolenko, Ruslan Rotan and Roman Zozulya the leading players, but plenty more talent present in Mikhail Fomenko’s squad.
Similar to the trademark style of former Soviet teams, Ukraine bases their tactics on rock-solid defence and swift counter-attacks, but it has to be noted that Zbirna possess a lot more technical skills and attacking potential than most other former Russian republics. Everything suggests that the most successful period in the history of the national team is ahead of them.
