Rennes-Dinamo Kiev is a match valid for the third day of the group stage of the Europa League: formations, where to watch it on TV and streaming
RENNES – DINAMO KIEV | Thursday 21:00
Rennes have two excellent opportunities: firstly, to almost definitively eliminate Dinamo Kiev from a possible comeback for a qualification discourse and then, above all, to remain in the first two positions of the grouping, those that give the possibility of going forward in the Europa League and not relegating to the Conference. In these first outings, the French team collected a victory and a draw, which put them together with Fenerbahce in front of everyone in the group. Furthermore, in this double round, there is also the confrontation between the Turks and Larnaca, the team that managed to beat, even against all odds, Dinamo Kiev, who are stuck at zero and do not give any sensation of being able to recover.
In short: even for what is the general path of the French Rossoneri – who arrive at this fixture with eight useful results in a row between league and cup – Thursday night’s match appears to be a match definitely written in the result. Dinamo Kiev, who have won their last two matches in the league, are not the team of the past few years, nor are they a team that looks likely to give a shake-up in the short term. At least in Europe, mind you. That’s why for Rennes the opportunity is double. And a tasty one at that.
The prediction
In a match that should yield at least three goals in total, a Rennes victory over Dinamo Kiev appears almost written. A match which the hosts should lead without any particular problems and which they could even unlock within the first 45 minutes.
