From everything I've seen about the only thing Russians have going for them is numbers. Western technology can counter that and from all reports Russian morale is in the pits. Take out their leadership, command and control, and their troops will flee the vaunted defensive positions they've been forced to create. Ukrainians issue will continue to be establishing some type of air superiority to ward off attacks launched from well inside Russia.

Franz-Stefan Gady, a London-based specialist in modern warfare, says the Ukrainian goal must be to “set off paralysis in the Russian military leadership and panic across the Russian rank and file … Intangible factors such as tactical surprise, battlefield leadership, and fighting morale will likely be decisive in the first 24 hours of an attack.”
We have already seen that the Ukrainian Fighting Morale well surpasses the Russian troops previously deployed there, and in that they will still have the upper hand.

Satellite imagery reviewed by CNN and other news organizations shows the extent of Russian defenses that have been built up in parts of southern Ukraine – layers of anti-tank ditches, obstacles, minefields and trenches.

The defenses continue for hundreds of miles across the meandering southern front – where Ukrainian forces are expected to concentrate their counter-offensive in the coming weeks."...
