The Ukrainian club is one step away from qualifying for the playoffs of the tournament.
On Tuesday, August 9, “Dynamo” Kyiv will hold a return match against Austrian “Sturm” within the framework of the third qualifying round of the Champions League.
ZN.UA will online broadcast the match “Sturm” – “Dynamo”.
The first match took place in the Polish city of Lodz and ended with a 1:0 victory for Kyiv. The Austrians created several opportunities for a goal in return, but in general did not show anything special on the field.
The second match will take place at the “Sturma” field, but now Dynamo has an advantage of one scored goal.

It is worth noting that “Dynamo” previously played two matches in the second round of the Champions League qualification and managed to get past the Turkish “Fenerbahce”, while “Sturm” just started its European cup journey.
The advantage of the Austrians is that they have already started performing in the domestic arena. On August 6, the team could not beat “Reed” on the road (1:1). “Dynamo” is still waiting for the start of the new UPL season, so after the first game with “Sturm” they only practiced.
In the pre-match warm-up before the first game, Kyiv's leader Viktor Tsygankov was injured. Currently, the winger has already started training, but it is possible that he will not be included in the starting lineup. Oleksandr Karavayev scored the winning goal in the first game against Sturma, who replaced Tsygankov in an emergency and played a very solid game.
The winner of the confrontation will play in the playoff round of the Champions League qualification against the stronger team in the pair “Benfica” – “Mitijulland” (first match – 4:1). The loser will go to the group stage of the Europa League.
