2020 Ukraine Premier League betting predictions show that the competition between Shakhtar and Dynamo will receive its further development. The chance that The Miners outplay their eternal rival from Kyiv is high, but the gap between them is too small to be sure. Besides two rivals in Ukrainian football, there will be Vorskla, Zorya, and Dnipro to pretend for superiority. The clubs have nice odds on 1xBet Sportsbook, but bookmakers point on Shakhtar and Dynamo to run for the trophy.

According to the 2020 Ukraine Premier League betting predictions Shakhtar will win again

Shakhtar Donetsk will be a defending champion during the 2019/20 season with a new head coach Luis Castro. Last year, the club had won with 83 points, which was 11 points more than the silver medal holder Dynamo. Bookmakers predict that the club is likely to take the title for the 13th time. Following online sportsbook news in Ukraine, Shakhtar is the favorite in the tournament with 1.60 odds on its victory.

Shakhtar had won the Ukrainian Premier League last three times in a row. During last seasons, The Miners outscored their runner-up Dynamo. The longest dominance of the Donetsk club lasted from 2010 to 2014. These years had brought Shakhtar five victories at a run.

Dynamo can win their 15th trophy in the Ukraine Premier League

The club from Kyiv is following Shakhtar Donetsk by its feet in the 2020 UPL. Dynamo with Alyaksandr Khatskevich as the coach has a good chance to return the title as the best Ukrainian club. According to online sportsbooks in Ukraine, the team’s victory betting odds are 2.10 and they still can grow with a flow of the championship. Dynamo Kyiv holds the record as the Ukrainian club with most trophies in UPL. The team had won its last, 14th Premier League, in 2016. One year earlier, the Kyiv club also finished the season with 66 winning points. Apart from that, Dynamo has always finished as runner-up in the UPL. The main reason for the Kyiv footballers to take a back seat is the 2012 crisis with Oleg Blokhin as a coach. The ex-forward of Dynamo lead the club to its worst statistics ever: 32 victories vs. 16 defeats.
