- If Ukraine wins against Albania and the Czech Republic does not lose to Georgia, the team will take second place and advance to the playoffs for promotion to Division A.
- If Ukraine wins against Albania and Georgia beats the Czech Republic, the team will take third place and advance to the playoffs to retain its place in Division B.
- If Ukraine draws or loses to Albania, the team will take fourth place and be relegated to Division C.
The Ukrainian national team has always played either in Division B or higher, so the result of this match is important for the team.
