Livyi Bereh host Veres Rivne in the Ukrainian Cup. Livyi Bereh have been picking up results at a steady rate across their recent matches, while Veres Rivne's form has been a bit more up and down.
This is a one-off cup tie rather than a league fixture, and both sides have already had mixed experiences in cup football this year. That leaves plenty of uncertainty about how they'll approach this one.

How each side has been getting on
Livyi Bereh's recent sample reads well: 10 wins, 9 draws and just a single defeat across 20 matches, with 32 goals scored against only 12 conceded. That said, this run stretches back through Persha Liga games, cup ties and even friendlies, so it's a broad snapshot rather than a clean league form guide.
Livyi Bereh: 20 completed matches; Veres Rivne: 20 completed matches.

Veres Rivne's numbers are more even: 6 wins, 8 draws and 6 losses, with 28 for and 26 against. There's a heavy 1-4 cup defeat to Inhulets in there alongside a comfortable 5-1 friendly win, which shows a side capable of both good and poor days.
Livyi Bereh's sample looks tidier on paper, but it's drawn from several different competitions rather than one settled run.
Comparative Team Statistics: Livyi Bereh vs Veres Rivne
What their past meetings show
There are only two recorded meetings between these sides, and they're split evenly by venue. Livyi Bereh won 2-0 at home in March 2025, while Veres Rivne won 3-1 on their own patch back in September 2024.
| League | Home | Away | Date | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Premier League | Livyi Bereh | Veres Rivne | 07.03.2025 | 2-0 |
| Premier League | Veres Rivne | Livyi Bereh | 01.09.2024 | 1-3 |
With just two games, both from over a year ago, this history doesn't tell us much about where either side stands right now.
Cup form has been shaky for both
Looking specifically at cup results this season, Livyi Bereh lost 0-3 to Dnister Zalishchyky and only drew 1-1 with Ahrobiznes Volochysk. Veres Rivne haven't fared much better in the same competition, losing 0-1 to Kulykiv and then 1-4 to Inhulets.
So while both teams have shown decent form in their regular league campaigns, neither has been convincing specifically in cup football lately. That's worth bearing in mind given this is exactly that kind of fixture.
Cup form for both sides has lagged behind their league form, which adds a layer of unpredictability here.

Livyi Bereh go in with the tidier overall record, but their cup form this season has been shakier than their league results suggest, and the same is true of Veres Rivne. With no market data to weigh up and only a thin, dated head-to-head to go on, there isn't a clear enough angle to back here.
This looks like one to watch rather than back, given how unpredictable both sides have been specifically in cup football recently.
