Prediction: 2-1
Dynamo Kyiv
As expected, Ajax eliminated Standard Liege in the Champions League third qualifying round. The Amsterdammers are brimming with confidence following a routine 3-0 win over the Red Devils, but they can’t afford any complacency in Wednesday’s football match against Dynamo Kiev. Anyhow, Ajax are likely to stick to their attacking style of play and we predict that experienced attacker Huntelaar, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, is going to make life difficult for the opposition back-line. Dynamo Kiev have been in a fine form at the start of the season as well, but seeing that the Dutch side are a real force to be reckoned with at home, home win should be considered. You should bear in mind that Ajax recorded a 2-1 win over Dynamo Kiev when the two teams faced each other in the Champions League 8 years ago.

Highlighted Team (Dynamo Kyiv):
The most successful football club in Ukraine, Dynamo Kyiv has not been relegated to a lower division since its inception in 1927. First founded as a part of the Soviet Dynamo Sports Society, Dynamo Kyiv became a member of the Ukrainian Premier League after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
Over the course of its rich history, Dynamo Kyiv has won the total of 28 national titles, 13 of which came during the Soviet era. In addition, Dynamo Kyiv won 20 national cup competitions, while it also grabbed 3 major continental trophies, including two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups. Oleh Blokhin remains to this date the most successful player of the Ukrainian giants with his 266 goals scored for the Kyiv club.
However, current Ukraine national team head coach Andriy Shevchenko is arguably the most recognisable player in Dynamo Kyiv history. Former Milan and Chelsea star scored the total of 124 goal during his two stints with the Ukrainian club.
