Dinamo Kiev-Rangers is a match valid for the first leg of the third preliminary round of the Champions League and is played on Tuesday at 8 p.m.: statistics, lineups, prediction, TV and streaming.
Dinamo Kiev has already played a qualifying round of the Champions League single group stage, while for Rangers it is their debut in these preliminaries. The Ukrainians put on a show in the two challenges against Partizan, overwhelmed 6-2 in the first leg (on a neutral field, as for obvious geopolitical reasons Oleksandr Shovkovskyi’s men are forced to play in Poland) and 3-0 in the return.
Proofs of strength that could hardly go unnoticed, especially considering that for Dinamo Kiev they were the first official outings: before the two matches with the Serbs, in fact, they had played only friendlies. The vice-champions of Ukraine – in the last tournament they finished second behind Shakhtar Donetsk and only came close to that title that has been missing since 2021 – were supposed to make their league debut last weekend but the match with Oleksandria was postponed to allow Yarmolenko and his teammates to focus exclusively on the all-important preliminary with the Scots. Rangers, in contrast, did not take advantage of this “advantage” and last Saturday made their Premiership debut by drawing 0-0 with Hearts in nearby Edinburgh. Shovkovskyi, coach of Dinamo, should field the same lineup that stunned Partizan – alongside Yarmolenko, in attack, will play Vanat and Kabayev – while on the other side Philippe Clement will rely on former Cremonese striker Dessers.

The Prediction
You can’t help but give Dinamo Kiev confidence after the Ukrainians impressed with such a respectable opponent as Partizan. Despite playing in Poland, the Ukrainians appear slight favorites – a narrow win likely – against a team that historically struggles away from home.
