Dnipro (P)review
So although much has happened in the past week, there is very little concerning FK Dnipro that I really want to talk about or relive, so I’ll be brief.

Exactly one week ago Dnipro travelled to Odessa were the played a match against the Black Sea People; Chornomorets.
The game started very well with another Vorobey goal very early on, in the seventh minute, and Dnipro continued to pour the pressure on, with Vorobey receiving an excellent chance to double his tally early. However it was not to be as Olexandr Kosyrin scored on fourteen minutes with a wondrous strike that dipped just up and over Maxym Startsev. The rest of the match happened without much incident except for another Kosyrin chance in the second half, in which Vitaly Denisov made an incredible goal line clearance, further increasing his stock with me.
The joys of penalty shootouts
Onto our midweek cup match against PFK Olexandria on which I will say only three words, and they are: Penalty, shootout, and lastly, agony. You can do the math.

Now onto the (hopefully) better days which lie ahead. We play tomorrow against Kryvbas in a game which we really need to win at home. Expected line up is: Startsev, Denisov, Rusol, Lysitskiy, Alcides/Lolo/Davidson, M Pashaev, Rotan, Nazarenko, Kalinichenko, Lyopa, Vorobey (Konoplyanka 78:)

Obviously a big question mark at right back, and it will just depend on who Bessonov thinks is playing best in practice, and is the most fit.
You'll probably see this man, Evgeny Konoplyanka come in for Vorobey on around the 78 minute mark for a tiring Vorobey
If you feel like watching it, the game starts at 11:00 Eastern time (Don’t forget to set your clocks back!!!) and it should be on 9-channel
