Barcelona vs Dynamo Kiev. Will the Catalans take the first points in the Champions League?
On Wednesday, October 20, at the Camp Nou stadium, a duel will take place between Barcelona and Dynamo Kiev as part of the third round of the Champions League group stage.
Ronald Koeman's side have lost their first two UEFA Champions League group stage matches and are now fourth in their quartet. The Catalans must definitely win the next two matches in order to maintain the chances of continuing the fight in the tournament.
Barcelona is going through hard times in its history, but still the class of the team's players should be enough to beat the new rival. The Catalans simply have nowhere to retreat, which means they will try to show their best football on their field and finally take three points.
Dynamo Kiev
Kievans in the first round of the Champions League drew with Benfica, and then devastatingly lost to Bayern on the road. Mircea Lucescu's charges got into a very difficult group, in which they were initially considered underdogs, so any point scored can be considered a positive moment for Dynamo.
Dynamo is confidently leading in the Ukrainian championship and will approach the match against Barcelona in good shape, which, of course, does not guarantee a successful performance at Camp Nou. Guests will need to jump over their heads and show their best football to create one of the main sensations of the new tour.
