Dynamo Kyiv was relegated to the Europa Conference League after failing to qualify for the Champions League following defeats to Pafos (0-1 and 2-0) and Maccabi Tel Aviv (3-1 and 1-0) in the Europa League play-offs. The first matchday looks set to be a tough one for the Ukrainian club as they face Crystal Palace, the surprise team of the early Premier League season, currently third in the English league. Dynamo Kiev are second behind Shakhtar Donetsk and have drawn their last three league games against Obolon (2-2), Oleksandriya (2-2) and Karpaty Lviv (3-3) this weekend.
Crystal Palace has not lost any of its 10 official matches since the start of the 2025-2026 season. Victorious in the FA Community Shield against Liverpool, the Eagles qualified for the Europa Conference League group stage after beating Norwegian club Fredrikstad (1-0 and 0-0) in the play-offs at the end of August. Frenchman Mateta's teammates (2 goals), who narrowly defeated Millwall (1-1, 4-2 on penalties) in the EFL Cup round of 32 on September 16, won their last two Premier League games at West Ham (1-2) and against Liverpool (2-1) this weekend thanks to a goal in added time from Nketiah (90+7).
