The well-known Ukrainian journalist and commentator Roberto Morales has prepared a forecast for the first match of the Champions League playoffs between Dynamo and Salzburg.

There was also a decline in the match against Rangers, but then they managed to put the opponent under pressure. Brazhko and Shaparenko are the cornerstone of the team and their inspiration is the reason why. The flanks with Yarmolenko, Voloshyn, Kabaev, Karavaev, and Bragaru are also very important.
The opponent is a very dynamic team. It is led by the Dutchman Pepein Leinders, who has been Jurgen Klopp's assistant at Liverpool since 2018. After the German retired, Leijnders started working independently. Now he has lost two strikers - ex-Shakhtar's Fernando and, most painfully, 20-year-old Karim Konate, who has already scored three dozen goals for the Red Bulls in official matches. The team's midfielders are Dane Moritz Kjærgaard, Argentine Nicolas Copaldo and Israeli Oscar Gluh.
At the national level, Salzburg started the season confidently, defeating LASK Taloverov 1-0 in the last round. The Austrians had problems in the previous round of the Champions League qualifiers with the Dutch Twente (3: 3, 2: 1). The bet is the Austrian goal in the second half," Morales said.
