Fenerbahce take on the visitors Dynamo Kyiv in the second leg of UEFA Champions League qualification quarterfinals. First leg result: 0-0. The match will be played on Wednesday, July 27th at Ülker Stadyumu (Istanbul).
Fenerbahce are just starting their next phase of the rebuilding. The Canaries were the Turkish champions for the last time in 2014 - a very long time ago, according to the criteria of the Istanbul Grand. All the time there are attempts to correct, to regain leadership, and they do not spare money for this. And now, without hesitation, they said goodbye to such disappointing stars as Tufan and Ozil. But, most importantly, it was possible to lure the experienced Jorge Jesus to the post of head coach. And the composition of the line-up is still going on. Many newcomers made their debut just in Lodz, led by Joshua King. Now this may continue, and perhaps this is what prevents us from showing our worth - there was not enough teamwork.

Dynamo Kyiv finally held an official match in 2022. The "White-blue" before that played just as a club and in a serious match only in December last year. The 2021/2022 season in Ukraine at the end of winter - the beginning of spring did not resume for obvious reasons, everyone was not up to sports because of the war. However, the organizational blow was painful, but not so serious, compared to Shakhtar. The coach remained, Mircea Lucescu, even such leading legionnaires as Verbich and Kendzera remained loyal to the club, and the backbone of the club used to be Ukrainian football players, often their own academy graduates. Even the problematic position on the left was closed by Dubinchak, which opened up in the Carpathians and the Dnipro. It is clear that it is still difficult, and last Wednesday they did not concede in the 1st half, mainly due to Buschan's confident play at the last frontier. But already in the course of the game it turned out to get comfortable on the field.
The clubs fought each other in 2006 and 2008 in the Champions League. Then Dynamo took victories at home and drew on voyages to Istanbul. Of course, Fenerbahce will be the favorite, especially at home. But Dynamo Kyiv may well achieve a result no worse than in Lodz. It is worth betting on the Ukrainians with a "+1 goal" handicap.
Prediction for the match: Dynamo Kyiv to win with +1.0 handicap.
