Key points

- Heated pitch with underground cable
- Lighting masts being installed for night matches
- Potential home game versus Chornomorets in December
- 10 points from 11 matches, 10th place
Financial director of FC Bukovyna Igor Nabolotny said that the overhaul of the club's home arena in Chernivtsi is almost finished and the remaining works are scheduled to wrap up by the end of November.
The new grass surface has been laid, and beneath it runs an electric cable that warms the root zone, promoting faster growth and maintaining quality during winter. The upgrade also includes a subsurface drainage system and an automated irrigation network.
"We are satisfied with the quality of the field. We got what we expected. The work was done well," Nabolotny stated.
Installation of lighting masts is now in its final stage; once the poles are in place, floodlights will be mounted, enabling night fixtures in the Ukrainian Premier League. According to the provisional schedule, Bukovyna could host Chornomorets on 5 December, though the match still depends on weather conditions.
After 12 rounds, the team has collected 10 points from 11 games, sitting in 10th place. The next encounter will be an away clash against Veres Rivne on 22 November at 13:00 Kyiv time.
