Only one team between Dynamo Kiev and Benfica will get to play in the UEFA Champions League group stage. The two teams are set to battle it out in this final qualification tie over 2 legs. Last season they were in the same UCL group so they will both have a good idea what to expect from the other.
As we preview this match, we promote the two bookmakers Betway and BetFox. These are among the best betting sites in Africa from our reviews.
DYNAMO KYIV
Dynamo KYIV have not played any domestic competition for the last 8 months and their only competitive football since then has been these UCL qualifiers. This has left them not at their sharpest, but they still managed to go past Sturm Graz and Fenerbache to get to this stage.
In their last tie against Sturm Graz, Dymano Kyiv won the 1st leg 1-0 and then lost the 2nd leg by the same scoreline. They eventually won the tie 2-1 after extra-time. Earlier against Fenerbache, they also needed extra time before they could emerge 2-1 victorious following 0-0 and 1-1 draws.
These recent games show that Dynamo Kyiv are not scoring enough goals, but at least their defense has been instrumental in getting the team this far.

BENFICA
Benfica have been in excellent form in recent games, having won all their last 5 games across all competitions. To get to this stage, they dismissed Midtjylland home and away 4-1 and 3-1. In their domestic league, they won their last 2 games and scored a total of 5 goals without any reply.
After getting the better of Dynamo Kiev in last season’s group stages (0-0 and 2-0), Benfica made it all the way to the quarter finals of the Champions League. A similar run would be welcome this season, but they know they first have to overcome a very difficult opponent in this tie.
