Preparations and other background events edit
On 13 July 2017 Volodymyr Heninson pointed out to the fact that since 1998 UEFA Super Cup takes place in Monaco[a] which is also a port city and, thus, the "Ukrainian Premier League moves in the stream of the European traditions".[3] As an additional argument why Odesa was chosen as the Ukrainian Super Cup place, the President of UPL stated that football was brought to the Russian Empire through Odesa by the British sailors.[4]
For the first time there will be used the 360-degree video technology for broadcasting of game by channels "Futbol 1" / "Futbol 2" with help of "Limelight, 360discoVR".[5] The game will be broadcast on the "Ukrayina" television channel as well. The game will be commented by Andriy Malynovskyi, while among the studio guests there will be Oleksandr Holovko and Vyacheslav Shevchuk. At the mid-game show will feature cheerleaders competition and concert of Ukrainian singer Yarmak.[6] On 14–15 July 2017 there are planned number of mass events by Ukrainian Premier League among which will be a 2.5 km (1.6 mi) running race "Probih UPL" that will take place in the morning of the game day.[7]
Originally appointed referee Anatoliy Zhabchenko[8] was replaced by Kostiantyn Trukhanov on a personal request.[9]
