The Kyiv clubs are set to play their next matches, both of which are significant in the fourth round of the Ukrainian Premier League, taking place from August 29 to 31. The teams, "Dynamo" and "Obolon", will participate in what can be considered the highlight matches of this round. The first match is crucial for the standings, while the second highlights the status of the opponents.

"KRYVBAS" — "OBOLON"

Where: Kryvyi Rih, "Hirnyk" Stadium

When: August 30 (Saturday), 13:00

In the first three rounds, "Obolon" surprised everyone. The team has yet to lose, despite facing tough opponents, and has delighted its fans with stunning goals. Sergey Sukhanov has particularly stood out.

Now, they face an ambitious "Kryvbas". Patrick van Leeuwen is building a new squad and has successfully dealt with his former teams, "Zorya" and "Metalist 1925", but stumbled against another rising team — "Kolos" from Kovalivka.

Whether "Obolon" can continue its unbeaten streak is the main intrigue of this match. However, it will be challenging, as their key goalkeeper Denis Marchenko has recently suffered a serious injury.

"DYNAMO" — "POLISSYA"

Where: Kyiv, "Dynamo" Stadium named after Valeriy Lobanovskyi

When: August 31 (Sunday), 15:30

This match is expected to be the highlight of the round. No other game in this round will feature such a concentration of skilled players and coaches on the field. Both teams played in the European Cup matches on Thursday and were eliminated from their tournaments, meaning they are on equal footing in terms of logistics and physical readiness. There are no suspended players in either team.

It is also worth noting that the "Polissya" roster includes players who once wore the Kyiv jersey, so they have something to prove. Even Ruslan Rotan once played for "Dynamo".
