LiontipsBarcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv. Predictions and Betting Tips for UEFA Champions League
Command Analysis
During the summer Barcelona lost Lionel Messi and it is extremely hard to replace him. Though even without Leo The Blaugrana still aims for a spot in the Champions League playoffs - it is difficult to compete against Bayern, but Ronald Koeman's men should be able to fight against Benfica and Dynamo for the second play-off spot.
Barcelona put up a terrible performance in the first game - Bayern left no chance to the hosts at Camp Nou, scoring three goals without conceding any. In the second match against Benfica, who is the main competitor for the second play-off spot, Barcelona went down once again - a 0:3 defeat sent the team into the bottom spot of the group.
Dynamo found themselves in a difficult group with Barcelona, Benfica and Bayern - it would be extremely hard to expect a Top-2 finish from Mircea Lucescu's men in this company. But in the first round team from Kyiv put up a good performance and had a chance for a victory in the match against Benfica (0:0), but Shaparenko's goal at the end of the match was disallowed by Anthony Taylor due to offside and game was ruled out as a draw.
No one expected anything good from a trip to Munich for a match against Bayern, who is in a crazy form. Eventually Dynamo's fans worst nightmare was made to come true. Kyivan team conceded five goals at Allianz Arena and failed to come up with a consolation goal, but due to Barcelona's failures Kyiv team is now at the third spot with one point in the asset.

Tip and bets
Barcelona lost two first matches in Champions League with a total score of 0:6, but The Blaugrana still have a chance for the playoffs, they need to pick up six points in two matches against Dynamo. Despite their numerous problems Barcelona are way better and more experienced than Lucescu's young team, hosts should be able to record an easy victory.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Barcelona
Barcelona's offensive line is pretty solid, especially after the return of Ansu Fati. Young defensive line of Dynamo is unlikely to contain the hosts. Catalan side is extremely motivated, plus they are much more experienced. We think that favourite will record a confident victory.
Our second bet is on Barcelona to win by two goals
