After holidays and training camps with control matches, clubs are once again taking to the field in the 17th round of the 2025/26 season, which will run from February 20 to 23. In particular, it is interesting to see how ready the championship leaders are for the start of the second half of the season. Currently, the European Cup zone includes Cherkasy LNZ (35 points – 1st place), Donetsk "Shakhtar" (35 points – 2nd place), Zhytomyr "Polissia" (30 points – 3rd place), and Kyiv "Dynamo" (26 points – 4th place).

The main football event of the day will take place at 6:00 PM in Kyiv, where "Dynamo" will meet "Rukh".
In the context of the Dynamo players' game against Lviv, particular attention is drawn to the situation at the top of the standings: the intrigue remains, and the struggle between the leaders promises to be intense.
