Borussia Dortmund welcome Dynamo Kyiv to the Westfalenstadion in a friendly game on Tuesday.

This will be one of the many friendly games that the Ukrainian club have planned to play in the coming days in order to raise awareness regarding the ongoing Russian invasion of their country.

Borussia Dortmund faced a 3-1 defeat in their previous league outing against Bayern Munich. With that win in Der Klassiker, the Bavarian giants lifted the league title for a record 10th season in a row.

The game at the NSK Olympiyskiy ended in a 2-2 draw while Dortmund secured a 1-0 win in the game at the Westfalenstadion.

Borussia Dortmund vs Dynamo Kyiv Prediction

The hosts are comfortably placed second in the Bundesliga standings and will likely field a young, second-fiddle squad here. Dynamo Kyiv have been traveling a lot for the friendly games and that might impact their preparations for the game.

Dynamo Kyiv are expected to play with passion in this game and, if the German side decide to rest their key players for the upcoming Bundesliga fixture, the Ukrainians will be able to hold their own.

We expect both sides to enjoy a solid outing here and the game will likely end in a high-scoring draw.

Prediction: Borussia Dortmund 2-2 Dynamo Kyiv
