Dynamo Kyiv vs Rangers Prediction and Betting Tips | August 6th 2024
Dynamo Kyiv and Rangers square off at Arena Lublin in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round on Tuesday. While the Ukrainian outfit breezed through the second round, the visitors head into the game off the back of a goalless draw with Hearts in the 2024-25 Scottish Premiership opener.
Dynamo Kyiv made light work of Partizan in the Champions League second qualifying round as they stormed to a 9-2 aggregate victory over the Serbian outfit.
Having picked up a 6-2 first-leg victory on July 23, Oleksandr Shovkovskyi’s men turned in another superb team display in the return leg as they cruised to a 3-0 win at the Partizan Stadium.
This followed an impressive pre-season campaign, where Dynamo Kyiv went unbeaten in five of their six friendly games, claiming three wins and two draws.
Rangers, on the other hand, were denied a dream start to the new Scottish Premiership campaign as they played out a goalless draw with Hearts last Saturday.
This was in keeping with their unconvincing display in pre-season as Philippe Clement’s side failed to win their four warm-up games, losing three and claiming one draw.
Rangers have booked their spot in the Champions League qualifiers, having finished as runners-up in the Premiership last season with 68 points from 38 matches.
