Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Dyn. Kyiv Prediction & Tips
Maccabi Tel Aviv is Israel’s most successful club. They have won 26 titles, including two in a row. However, in Europe, the blue-and-yellows have not had much success for a long time. In the last edition of the Europa League, Maccabi Tel Aviv was one of the worst teams, finishing 29th with only 6 points.
Dynamo Kiev, last season, broke Shakhtar’s hegemony by winning the Ukrainian Premier League. But in the Europa League, Aleksandr Shovkovski’s side fared even worse than Maccabi Tel Aviv, collecting just 4 points.
Interestingly, the paths of the two clubs have crossed remarkably. In the third qualifying round of the Champions League, Dynamo Kiev were eliminated precisely by Paphos (0:1 and 0:2), the same opponent the Israelis faced earlier. Before that, the Ukrainian champions overcame Hamrun with authority. In the new UPL season, Dynamo Kiev have won all three of their opening matches.
