Well-known Ukrainian TV presenter Igor Tsyganyk shared his prediction for the match of the 2nd round of the Europa League group stage between Dynamo Kyiv and Cypriot AEK, which will take place today in Krakow.
“In general, the difficult situation in Dynamo. Even Sunday's victory in the Ukrainian Premier League over Lviv with a score of 1:0 did not convince. There are problems in the team with the search for mutual understanding.
In my opinion, Vladislav Kabaev acted sharply among all the Kiev players on Sunday. At the same time, Viktor Tsygankov is gradually getting in shape. It is possible that Vanat will take the forward position from the first minutes. I think that Vladislav can play better than other forwards.
As for AEK, I will mention how Dnipro-1 in the Europa League qualification delivered more than 30 shots on goal, but could not beat this opponent. The Cypriot team is not bad, but very slow, as for me.
With such an age-old opponent, Dynamo should not have problems in a two-legged confrontation, however, there may be surprises in the first game.
I would venture to suggest that Dynamo will score more than one goal, and the meeting will end in a draw. I expect a score like 2:2,” said Tsyganik.
