Minai contest Dynamo Kyiv for praise and success.
These teams have little in common geographically as Dynamo Kyiv have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Minai form and stats
Minai have collected 1 point from their Premier League home games so far after 0-1-1.
The Minai club members got no joy from their last match, also played here at Stadion Mynai: A 0-1 defeat against Lviv (placed 10th). Heartbreak for Minai in their last match as Lviv's Vasyliev scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Inhulets.No one expects the home team to get anything from this game. It's not often a home team are such massive outsiders as in this game.

Dynamo Kyiv form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Premier League ended in defeat. Last season Dynamo Kyiv had these away match statistics: Played 9; won 8, drew 1 and lost 0.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Europa League home loss versus AEK Larnaca with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Midfielder Tsygankov was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.61. Tsygankov hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Lviv in the Premier League.As mentioned earlier, Dynamo will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 8 wins (6 by two or more goals winning margin), 1 draw and 0 surprising defeats.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Dynamo Kyiv manager Lucescu as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Rennes.
2 goals so far away for Dynamo Kyiv, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 1 league match away.
