Dynamo Kiev vs Ferencvaros Match Preview

Dynamo Kiev faces Ferencvaros for the 6th round of the UEFA Champions League group Stage at NSK Olimpijs'kyj. These two sides will go head to head for 3rd place in the group standings.

The hosts knew that they had some difficult opponents to face in the group, like Barcelona and Juventus, so 3rd place was their main goal from the beginning. Dynamo Kiev has bagged just 1 point, in the draw against Ferencvaros (3-3) on the road.

In the previous round of the group stage, they suffered a 3-0 defeat in Torino against Juventus, while in the domestic league they are coming from a 1-2 home win over Mariupol. Most of Micrea Lucescu's roster is young and inexperienced players for UEFA Champions League games. No missings are reported for the hosts.

On the other hand, Ferencvaros had a similar fate as Dynamo Kiev in the group stage, and now they are called to face them for the 3rd place in the group. From what we've seen so far, Ferencvaros performed slightly better than Dynamo Kiev.

In the match against Juventus, Ferencvaros managed to take the lead with Myrto Uzuni's goal, but unfortunately for them, Juventus made the overturn, scoring the winner in the dying minutes of the game. In the previous round, they suffered a 0-3 defeat against Barcelona at home. In the domestic league, they are on five-round winning streak, while in the previous round, they prevailed 1-3 over Diosgyori VTK.

This is a crucial match for both sides who aim for a Europa League ticket. Dynamo Kiev has virtually the home advantage but they will play in an empty stadium. On the other hand, we've seen some decent performances by the visitors who are currently in great form, coming from a good winning streak in their domestic league. Ferencvaros played well in both away matches so far and I expect them to take the lead on the counter. The away to win is my call for this one, offered at 4.75 odds.
