Road to Kyiv
Both clubs were among the six Ukrainian clubs that last year competed in the Soviet Supreme League and therefore started from the second round (Round of 16).
The two teams had some difficulties along the way. Chornomorets lost its first game in Zhytomyr to Polissya 1–4, but reinstated themselves in the return leg with a 7–1 win. Then had to visit Zaporizhia two rounds in a row before qualifying for this final. Metalist came to the final after defeating Shakhtar in the semi-finals and were considered able to repeat their previous Soviet achievement by earning another national trophy.
