Once again, Turkish Fenerbahce will face Dynamo Kyiv. However, this time it is at a lower level, in the Europa League, but at the group stage. Despite the result of the confrontation in the Champions League qualifying, the Turks are considered big favorites of the meeting, and this time we tend to agree with the bookmakers considering the condition Dynamo is in now.

After being eliminated from the Champions League qualifying, Fenerbahce played two rounds of Europa League qualifying and knocked out club Slovacko and Austrian Austria from the tournament. At the same time, the Yellow Canaries played five matches in the Turkish championship, where they beat Kasımpaşa, Adana Demirspor, and Kayserispor, drew with Umraniyespor and lost to Konyaspor. After five rounds played, Fenerbahce is third in the league standings with 10 points and three points behind the leading Besiktas. In any case, the Canaries are on the positive side, they won a number of matches and are among the leaders in the Super Lig, so it will not be easy for Dynamo players.
Dynamo Kyiv
On the other hand, Dynamo suffered a significant decline in the game. First, the Kyiv team with great difficulty made it to the finals of the Champions League qualifying, beating Austrian Sturm. After that, they failed in the final of qualification, losing on aggregate of two matches to the Portuguese Benfica with the score at 0-5. Though, it is worth noting that Benfica was the strongest opponent, which could hardly be handled by anyone at all. In the Ukrainian championship, Dynamo has already played two matches against Dnipro 1 and Zoria. As a result: two 0-3 defeats from Dnipro and 2-3 from Luhansk, and a total of four defeats in four games.
Injuries and suspensions
- Fenerbahce: Sangare will not play, Aziz is questionable;
- Dynamo Kyiv: No Injuries.
Head-to-head encounters
Fenerbahce and Dinamo Kyiv have played seven friendly matches and six matches within the Champions League. The Turks have never managed to beat the Ukrainians: two victories for Dynamo and five draws in regulation time. However, despite these statistics, Fenerbahce is the favorite to win the upcoming game.
Expert Betting Tips
Given the current Dynamo tone, it is difficult to bet on the Ukrainians, even considering the fact that most recently the Kyivians defeated the Turks on aggregate of two matches. The thing is that since the Champions League qualifying matches, Fenerbahce has been only gaining form. Not only in the international arena, but also at home the Canaries are doing well. Whereas there are two defeats from Benfica stricken Kyivians, which we have seen in the first two matches of the Ukrainian championship. Though, it is worth noting that at the start of the Ukrainian Premier League, Dynamo had a really complicated schedule. As for the totals, we doubt that the upcoming game will be goal-rich just like the UCL qualifying matches. We offer these betting options for the game:
