Dynamo Kyiv will entertain Fenerbahce at the Marszałek Piłsudski Stadium on Thursday as they wrap up their UEFA Europa League group stage campaign.
The hosts have been eliminated from the competition as they have been unable to secure a win in five games and have just one point to their name. They earned their first point of the campaign last week as they held AEK Larnaca to a 3-3 draw.
Fenerbahce and Rennes have 11 points apiece and will need to sign off for the group stage with a win if they are to secure direct qualification to the round of 16 from Group B. Fenerbahce were also involved in a 3-3 draw against Rennes last week.
They went three goals down just 30 minutes after the kick-off whistle but held their own to overturn the deficit with two goals in the last 10 minutes of the game. Enner Valencia scored a goal in the first half, while Miha Zajc and Emre Mor scored in the 82nd and 88th minutes respectively.
Dynamo Kyiv are playing for pride alone and will be looking to sign off with a win, so they might surprise the visitors in this match.
