Dynamo Kiev-Lazio Europa League
Lazio has wasted a wonderful opportunity in the first leg. The team coached by Simone Inzaghi has proven to be superior to Dynamo Kiev, but has made it even after reassembling the initial goal of Tsygankov. Some goalkeeper Strakosha was also at fault on both the first and second goals. And there was no lack of luck in the last minute of recovery when Immobile hit the post and failed the 3-2 potential.
Dynamo Kiev Khatskevich’s coach surprised everyone by sending a very defensive formation to the field, initially giving up Moraes, a natural substitute for striker Mbokani, who was out due to injury. In the first half he defended well enough, renouncing in practice the restart. Simone Inzaghi might have had to change tactics and give up the three-man defense, which he did only in the final on the two-to-two score. In this season when his team has also gone thanks to his work beyond all expectations, he had perhaps the defect of never trying an alternative form to 3-5-1-1. A tactic of play that when Milinkovic-Savic and Luis Alberto are not at the top gives a few offensive solutions during maneuvering.
The latest news on the formations
The news is that Milinkovic-Savic has not been summoned for a muscle problem and will miss the match against Dynamo Kiev. An absence without any doubt, even if the young Serbian midfielder is not in his best moment of the season. Instead Marusic recovered that will return to be the holder on the right wing of midfield. Probably a bench also for Luis Alberto, Felipe Anderson will act in support of Immobile. They are the two most fit players in this period and will need their help to get through the round. Lazio is able to win this game, and with one of the best attacks it travels to Kiev with confidence. The problem, however, will not be affected, given that the defense has often left to be desired and this time it will be Bastos, often the author of serious individual errors.
In Dynamo Kiev there will be no disqualification for Garmash, expelled in the first leg. This time the coach Khatskevich should send a less defensive training to take advantage of the spaces that Lazio will leave on the counterattack. For this reason, Derlis Gonzalez will be the owner of Junior Moraes (with seven goals in this competition) who scored the final two and two goals in the second half.
Dynamo Kiev-Lazio Prediction
Lazio despite the only three victories obtained in the last twelve official matches seems to have the means to hit the comeback. However, it will have to pay attention to a team of great tradition at European level and equipped with talented young people. From the odds, the external double chance combined with over 1.5 seems the most reliable solution.
