The clubs of the first and second leagues agreed with the proposal to postpone the start of the season in their championships by one week - from July 25 to August 3 and 4 (on the same days the UPL starts).

As for the start of the preliminary stage of the Ukrainian Cup, it is scheduled for July 28. With the calendar participants still have to wait until July 22, when the draw will be held.
The PFL hopes that by then it will be known whether Dnipro-1 will continue to play in the elite.
If not, then its place in the UPL will most likely be taken by Minai, and in the first league the Zakarpattians will be replaced by Metalurh Zaporizhzhya, which lost in the transition matches.
