Bruges:
The home advantage at the Jan Breydel Stadium is very important! Bruges wants to take the first step into the next round in front of their home crowd and prevail against Kiev at home. The Belgians had already made a strong home performance on international stage last season and only defeated BVB. National was Bruges in regular time the second strongest home team and continued the trend in the championship round. With five home victories, Bruges scored the highest points at home. For the title defense, it was not enough, two points behind KRC Genk.
With Philippe Clement now the championship coach of Genk in Bruges “boat” was brought. Clement himself had played in addition to his coaching stations at Genk and Bruges even for the two clubs, but decided despite winning the title at Genk but to move to Bruges. The decision of the 45-year-old is not really surprising, however, when it is considered that a sell-out of the service providers could not be ruled out at KRC Genk. The intensive preparation of the blue-blacks was recently fruited: To kick off two convincing victories in the Jupiler League were celebrated. After the recent 6-0 victory over St. Truiden, the euphoria will be great to defend against Dynamo Kiev in the Champions League.
With departures of Marvelous Nakamba, Arnaut Danjuma and Wesley Club Bruges had to endure tough departures. However, the money could be reinvested quickly due to the large revenues from the Premier League clubs. With Keeper Mignolet from Liverpool FC, Bruges was able to land a real transfer coup. Newcomer David Okereke celebrated with three goals and a goal from the first two league games a successful season opener. At the strong performances, it is now also in the Champions League tie. In the 4-2-3-1 system of Clement, there will probably be no changes to the starting eleven against St. Truiden.
Dynamo Kiev:
Aleksandr Khatskevich will be more than satisfied with the start of the season in Ukraine. The Dynamo Kiev coach took the first trophy at the beginning of the new competitive season. At the Super Cup against Shakthar Donetsk could prevail the runner-up Kiev. The first two league games could win Dynamo Kiev, while still keeping the white vest. Last season Dynamo Kiev made it to the premier league only in the playoff round of qualifying and then said goodbye to the Europa League group stage. If it is considered that opponents Ajax Amsterdam has fought his way into the semifinals of the premier class, the defeat in the last qualifier will have been but to cope.
One floor down, however, the performance of the Ukrainians could be seen. Dynamo Kiev struggled to the knockout stages of the Europa League and had to be defeated first against Chelsea. Coach Khatskevich can look back on a successful season on the international stage after the very demanding games in the Champions League and Europa League. At the CL duel between Bruges vs. Bruges. Dynamo Kiev is in line with odds, the starting position for progress. For the White Blues from Kiev, the away goal will probably have top priority.
The Ukrainians were able to hold all performers in the summer. Thus, Khatskevich is with a well-rehearsed squad for the new season and can rely on the services of its most valuable actor Viktor Tsyhankov. The 21-year-old is already in the radar of some European top clubs but will probably spend the season still in the white-blue. In the Champions League qualifier against Bruges Khatskevich is expected to miss only striker Fran Sol, who is currently healing another injury.
