Match facts
- This will be the first meeting between the two sides
- Dynamo have only won two of their last eight games in all competitions
- Benfica, on the other hand, have won seven of their last 10 games this season
- However, the Eagles have failed to win any of their last four Champions League games
- The same case applies to the hosts, who have not won any of their last five European games
Match forecast
The hosts will miss the services of Danilo Silva who has been sidelined due to injury. However, they will be boosted by the return of Serhiy Sydorchuk who has finished serving his suspension in thei last UCL tile.
Benfica come into this match with renewed energy, having not played a league match since the beginning if October. But despite their long lay-off they still have a long injury list ahead of the visit to Ukraine. Goalkeeper Julio Cesar is doubtful for this clash but he could be replaced by Ederson Moraes.
Both sides are struggling in Europe but Kyiv seem to be performing even worse collectively. Having registred only two wins in their last eight matches in all competitions, the Ukrainian side have an uphill task against Rui Vitoria’s men. A win for the visitors is the most probable result here.
