Prediction: 2-0
Dynamo Kyiv
Olympiakos will be aiming to build on a thrilling 3-1 win over Milan when they welcome Dynamo Kiev at their Stadio Georgios Karaiskaki in the first leg of the Europa League last 32. Olympiakos are eyeing their third consecutive win at home in the Europa League and you should bear in mind that they are undefeated in previous nine home games in the competition. The Thrylos aim to get their job done in the first leg and seeing that they have been in a fine form in the national championship of late, we predict that they are going to prove their worth on the field. The Ukrainians, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs in the Europa League this season and, taking everything into account, we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Olympiakos’ party in the capital of Greece.

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.
