27th round started on May 19 Ukrainian Premier League.
Donetsk “Miner” won against Veres (2:1), and Igor Jovicevich’s team continues to lead the UPL with 66 points.
“Dnepr-1” with great difficulty in stoppage time snatched victory from Kolos (2:1) and scored 64 points, remaining in the championship race.
With 3 matches to go, the gap between the Dnipro and the Pitmen is 2 points. The main contenders for the title will play each other in the penultimate round (May 28).
Kyiv “Dynamo” lost even theoretical chances to play in the Champions League, as the gap from 2nd place is 14 points with four games ahead. Almost certainly the people of Kiev in the next European season will play in the League of Conferences.
Dynamo was left without the Champions League for the first time in 9 years. In the 2013/14 season, the capital club took 4th place under the leadership of Oleg Blokhin.
The first two UPL teams will qualify for the 2023/24 Champions League. At the same time, the champion of Ukraine is very likely to go straight to the group stage, since, most likely, the place reserved for the winner of the 2022/23 Champions League will not be used.
The third place UPL will receive a ticket to the qualification of the Europa League. Teams that finish in 4th and 5th place will compete in the Conference League.
Top 5 UPL: Shakhtar (66 points), Dnipro-1 (64), Zorya (58), Dynamo (50), Alexandria (42).
Miner’s calendar: Dawn (May 24), Dnepr-1 (May 28), Vorskla (June 3).
Dnipro-1 calendar: Vorskla (May 24), Shakhtar (May 28), Kryvbas (June 3).
