Just looking at geography and road links, the Western Ukraine uplands seem a literal uphill struggle for Russia, especially if Ukraine is consistently supplied from Poland and Romania. A stalemate seems likely. The areas of contention are around the Dneiper cities like Kiev and Dnepropetrovsk, and then the coast between Odessa and Kherson. Strategically, Russia would be wiser to retreat to eastern hills above the Dneiper to consolidate, and focus on the south coast. Guard supply lines all the way to Mikolaev and Odessa.
