Dynamo Kiev has no problems taking care of Everton last round in Ukraine … lost 1-2 away but won with an incredible 5-2 at home. A similar scenario happened in Round 32 vs. Guingamp. Kiev is incredibly strong at home, where they did not lose in one year to the day … on 16 April 2014 it was a 0-2 defeat at the hands of Shakhtar. Makarenko is out for Dynamo and Veloso is a doubt. But after a long time Dynamo has the offensive quartet of Belhanda, Yarmolenko Lens and Mbokani fit to play at the same time.
Dynamo Kiev projected lineup:
Shovkovskiy – Danilo Silva, Khacheridi, Dragovic, Vida – Rybalka, Garmash – Belhanda Yarmolenko, Lens – Mbokani.
I strongly suspect that Fiorentina is losing the battle with fitness … La Viola had a nightmare schedule in 2015 … tough match after tough match every three days, Cup, Europa league, Serie A. The last two matches were two 3-0 defeats to Juventus and Napoli, which saw Roma lose almost everything … the Coppa Italia and the last chance to fight for a Top 3 finish. Europa League is all they have left and you know they will give it their all and have the quality to qualify … but with the current form it will be tough. Visitors will not have Rossi and Basanta in the lineup. Pizarro will probably also miss the match.
Fiorentina projected lineup:
Neto – Richards, Savic, Rodriguez, Alonso – Borja Valero, Fernandez, Badelj – Ilicic, Salah, Gomez.
Dynamo has to get at the very worst a draw at home if they want to have any chance of progression. They have been impecable on home soil, both in the domestic competitions and in the UEFA Cup. With Fiorentina shaking badly at the moment, Dynamo has the power to pull off another great result in Ukraine … they are healthier and better rested. Also Fiorentina will probably not be too angry with a loss as long as they score a goal, considering the crisis they are in. Always tough to play in Eastern Europe, particularly in Kiev vs probably the best Dynamo team in 15 years. My tip will be Dynamo Kiev +0 asian handicap. Correct score prediction: Dynamo Kiev – Fiorentina 2-1.
Pick: Dynamo Kiev (+0 Asian Handicap)
Odds: 1.72
