Dynamo Kyiv take on the visitors Zrinjski in the round 4 match of UEFA Conference League – League Phase. The match will be played on Thursday, November 6th at
Dynamo Kyiv continue to deliver uninspiring results. The Blue and Whites, under the guidance of their legendary goalkeeper Oleksandr Shovkovskyi, not only reclaimed the Ukrainian Premier League title in the 2024/2025 season but did so without a single defeat. They also managed to stay unbeaten for a long stretch into the new campaign. However, even during that dominant run, there was a setback — they lost the domestic cup final on penalties to their eternal rivals Shakhtar, and it was a deserved defeat. Moreover, their performance in European competitions was unimpressive. This season, Dynamo have been dropping points regularly in the league and have disappointed internationally. They started the Champions League qualifiers well, with two 3-0 wins over Hamrun Spartans, but then suffered a shock loss to modest Pafos. Their Europa League campaign ended quickly after defeats to Maccabi Tel Aviv (1-3 and 0-1), and things have gone from bad to worse in the Conference League. A “home” loss to Crystal Palace (0-2) was followed by a humiliating defeat away to Samsunspor, where they failed to register a single shot on target. Even in domestic competition, their inconsistency shows — they narrowly beat Shakhtar in the cup, only to lose to them again in the league. Dynamo’s confidence appears to be fading, and the lack of attacking creativity is becoming a serious concern.

Zrinjski reclaimed the Bosnian Premier League title last season after a one-year gap — their ninth in total, all within the past two decades. Domestically, they remain a model of stability, but their European record is far more modest. In the Champions League qualifiers, they passed Virtus but fell short against Slovan Bratislava. A similar story followed in the Europa League, where they overcame Breidablik but were eliminated by Utrecht. At least in the Conference League, they started confidently with a 5-0 home victory over Lincoln Red Imps from Gibraltar, though they predictably lost 0-1 away to Mainz. Zrinjski’s disciplined defense makes them a difficult team to break down, even if their attack often lacks cutting edge. Despite their limitations, they approach every European game with determination and tactical organization.
This will be the first-ever meeting between the Ukrainian and Bosnian clubs. Shovkovskyi’s men remain the favourites on paper, but recent form suggests otherwise. The more reliable option looks to be Zrinjski +1 handicap, as the visitors have every chance to stay competitive and avoid defeat in Kyiv.
Prediction for the match: Zrinjski not to lose (X2).
