On Saturday, March 18, Dynamo Kyiv will host Zorya Luhansk in the central match of the 18th round of the Ukrainian championship. The game will take place in Kyiv at the Dynamo Stadium named after V. Lobanovsky and will start at 14:00.
Here is the schedule of the best scorers of both teams in head-to-head matches among the current players of Dynamo and Zorya.
Among the current Dynamo players, Vitalii Buyalskyi is the best sniper in matches with Luhansk, with 6 accurate shots against Zorya. Vitaliy scored all of them in the Ukrainian league matches, and the last one in the first round game of this season, which ended with a score of 3-2 in favor of Zorya. However, Vitaliy will not play on Saturday because of the red card he received after the final whistle in the last round match against Dnipro-1.
Zorya captain Serhiy Sydorchuk scored three times. Mykola Shaparenko, who is currently training individually, continued his recovery from injury. Oleksandr Syrota and Vladyslav Vanat, who also scored in the last match between the teams, scored one goal each.
Interestingly, in the game of the 26th round of the UPL season 2017/2018, which also took place at the Dynamo Valeriy Lobanovsky Stadium, the ball was scored by Mykyta Burda, who now plays for the Black and Whites on loan from our club.
Among the current players of the Luhansk club, Dmytro Myshniov scored the most goals (twice) against Dynamo - last season with Mariupol, this season - in a Zorya shirt in the first round match. At the same time, former Dynamo striker Nazariy Rusyn and Volodymyr Brazhko, who is on loan from our club, scored goals against our team. These are the only players of Zorya's current squad who have scored against the White and Blues.
The current player of our team Oleksandr Karavayev, who played for Zorya in 2014-2016, also scored a goal for Dynamo in a match against Dynamo.
