Viktor Skrypnyk was selected as the best coach of round 10 in the 2026/27 Ukrainian Premier League despite Zorya not recording a victory. His side held Shakhtar to a 0-0 draw, with its defensive display shaping both major individual awards.

The Ukrainian Premier League reported the poll results on Tuesday, October 27, on upl.ua. The ballot brought together 38 UPL.TV presenters, commentators and analysts, along with journalists from leading Ukrainian sports outlets.

Oleksandr Saputin received the player-of-the-round award after keeping a clean sheet for Zorya. Kolos forward Anton Salabai finished narrowly behind him, while Polissya’s Borys Krushynskyi ranked third; Mykola Mykhailenko of Dynamo and Zorya’s Bohdan Kushnirenko completed the top five.

Mladen Bartulović, whose Kharkiv side beat Epitsentr 2-1 with a late goal, placed second in the coaching vote. Kolos manager Ruslan Kostyshyn was third following a 2-0 away win over Veres. Experts considered 20 players, nine coaches and 67 candidates for the round’s symbolic lineup.
