They are averaging 0.60 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 7 clean sheets from 10 games (70%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. LNZ Cherkasy have played only a handful of Premier League games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Veres Rivne have collected 0.70 PPG across 10 Premier League outings this season: 2W 1D 7L. Last five: L D L L L. Their scoring rate of 0.60 per game is modest, conceding 1.70 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Veres Rivne have played only a handful of Premier League games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

The points-per-game gap of 0.60 in LNZ Cherkasy's favour (1.30 vs 0.70) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.
