DYNAMO KIEV v CHELSEA BETTING PREVIEW

Dynamo Kiev's 38-match unbeaten run in the Ukrainian league came to an end as they were thrashed 3-0 at home by rivals Shakhtar Donetsk on Friday. They are currently second in the Ukrainian League with 28pts from 11 games. As to the Champions League, Dynamo top the group with four points, the same as Porto, followed by Chelsea on three and Maccabi Tel Aviv on zero. The Ukrainians are looking to get out of the group stage for the first time in their last 11 attempts.

The hosts are without Younes Belhanda while midfielder Serhiy Rybalka is a doubt because of a muscle injury. Other than that, Serhiy Rebrov has the luxury of a fully fit squad to choose from. Junior Moraes is likely to lead the line with Derlis Gonzalez, Sergiy Sydorchuk and Andriy Yarmolenko behind him.

Chelsea have lost six of their last 13 games in all competitions and they have taken just 11 points from their opening nine matches. As to the Champions League, a comfortable 4-0 home win over Maccabi Tel Aviv on matchday 1 was followed by a 2-1 defeat in Porto two weeks later.

Chelsea look set to be without Branislav Ivanovic, who will be replaced by summer signing Baba Rahman. Eden Hazard could return to the starting line-up having been dropped for the victory over Aston Villa. Nemanja Matic and Oscar could start at the expense of Ramires and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
