Dynamo Kiev:
Dynamo Kiev will face Red Bull Salzburg in the first leg of their Champions League playoff on Wednesday evening, with both teams just two games away from the group stage. Dynamo have navigated their way past Partizan Belgrade and Rangers to reach this crucial stage. After a 1-1 first-leg draw against Rangers, Dynamo capitalized on a red card for Rangers’ Jefte in the second leg, scoring twice in quick succession to secure a 3-1 aggregate victory. Despite their impressive performance, Dynamo are currently playing their "home" games in Lublin, Poland, due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. They remain unbeaten this season and aim to extend their 12-match unbeaten streak at their temporary home. Having failed to reach the Europa Conference League last season and suffering a heavy playoff defeat to Benfica two years ago, Dynamo are determined to return to Europe's elite competition.
Red Bull Salzburg:
Red Bull Salzburg, under new manager Pep Lijnders, head into the playoff with Dynamo Kiev full of confidence. The Austrian champions have had a flawless start to their domestic season, winning all their league games and advancing in the Austrian Cup. Lijnders, who has made a strong return to management after his stint at Liverpool and NEC Nijmegen, has overseen a successful transition following Salzburg's domestic title loss to Sturm Graz last season. Salzburg narrowly progressed from the third qualifying round, securing a dramatic 3-3 draw away to Twente after a 2-1 home win. Despite their recent struggles in the Champions League, including a group stage exit last year, Salzburg are eager to reassert their presence in Europe's top competition.
