Former Ukrainian national football team player Yuriy Virt made a prediction for today's Nations League match between Serhiy Rebrov's men and the group leaders, the Georgians:
"Of course, it is very difficult to predict the outcome without being in the middle of the national team. Still, I will take a chance - 2:1 in favor of our countrymen. From those statements in the press of the Ukrainian national teams, it is felt that they are maximally concentrated to achieve the desired result. So, there will be no problems with the setup. The emergence of a whole group of debutants in the main team of the country should only help to intensify competition for a place in the starting lineup. This is a plus. Moreover, some of the players who received their first call-up to the national team have every chance of becoming the hero of the match. For example, the annoying Oleksandr Nazarenko.
As for me, today a lot will depend on how active our flanks will be. Given that the Georgians can defend with large forces, it is there that there will be space for vulnerable attacks. After the initial setbacks, Serhii Rebrov's team has something to prove. In Poznan, they need to start improving their tournament position," Wirth said.
