In-form Benfica will look to complete the work they started in the first leg of this Champions League playoff game when they host Dynamo Kyiv. The Portuguese side has begun this season strongly, and that includes their domestic form despite losing Darwin Nunez to Liverpool in this transfer window. They have won all their last 11 matches, including friendlies, and they have maintained a solid winning mindset and form. Kyiv deserves credit for remaining in this competition at this stage, considering that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has halted their domestic season since the start of this year. They have reached this round of qualifiers by earning some stunning wins along the way, but they lost the home leg of this fixture 2-0 in Poland and they will struggle to overturn that in this fixture. Benfica has maintained a solid head-to-head record in this fixture with three wins from their four clashes with the visitors. This game is likely to end in an over 1.5 goals score.

Qarabag hosts Plzen in this Champions League playoff game with both evenly matched teams looking to earn the available spot in the UCL group stage. The host has been in good form domestically and in Europe in their last few matches and they would be keen to get the job done here. They have won all their last three matches and have no defeat in their last five games. Their last UCL game ended in a 3-1 away win and they would be very confident in getting the required result from this first leg in front of their fans. Plzen has also been on a fine run of form and they have four wins from as many matches so far. Their last UCL opponent was Sherriff, and they won both fixtures 2-1 each. Qarabag will be tougher opponents, but the hosts have never won a Czech Republic opponent and they will be keen to change that. However, the visitors will have other plans and they will not want to go into the second leg with too much deficit. This game will not have many goals and we think Over 1.5 Goals is the perfect prediction. For other Over 1.5 goals predictions, click here.

Dynamo Kyiv will host an in-form Benfica team in this Champions League playoff match hoping to reach the group stage of the competition. The Ukrainians have not been involved in domestic football for a long time because of the ongoing invasion of their country by Russia. Because of this, they deserve credit for reaching this stage of the UCL qualification, but it will be tough for them to eliminate Benfica. The Portuguese side reached the quarterfinals of the competition last season and they haven’t lost to Kyiv in 30 years. They have also started this season very strongly and they would be keen to keep the momentum for this game. The visitors have won all their last five matches, including beating their last opponents in the Champions League home and away. Kyiv eliminated Sturm Graz to reach this stage of the competition and they will be keen to get over Benfica, but this would be their toughest test yet. Benfica has lost none and won four of the last five matches between these clubs. Goals will be plenty in this game and we believe it would be an Over 2.5 Goals match.

Glasgow Rangers have their work cut out for them after their 2-0 loss in the first leg of this Champions League qualifier. The Europa League finalists have failed in their last attempts to reach the group stages of the competition and it seems that will be the case again in this campaign. Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s men have lost Joe Aribo and Calvin Bassey in this transfer window and both of them were key players for them in the last term. They have to rebuild this team and their struggles in their last two matches suggest things are simply not going to plan. In truth, Rangers had some luck in the first leg because the outcome could have been far worse and now they have to take advantage of home support to mount an incredible comeback. Union Saint-Gilloise had an incredible campaign in the Belgian top flight last season which earned them this spot in the Champions League. They haven’t played in Europe for nearly 60 years, but they will not want to be in the Europa League in this campaign. Their 2-0 win in the first leg suggests they have brought some of their incredible result-producing football to this new term. They know their work will not be easy, but they have thrived as underdogs for much of their time in Belgium and will want to build on that in this game. SG lost their last competitive game before this match 3-0 against KV Mechelen, and that could give the hosts encouragement that they can earn a win here, but they need many goals. This match will be close but at least two goals will be scored. For more over 1.5 betting tips, click here.

Midtjylland missed a chance to earn a huge advantage in the first leg of this Champions League qualifier, but they remain favourites to reach the next round. They will face a Larnaca side that surprisingly impressed in the first leg in Denmark to earn a 1-1 draw and they will be confident of completing an upset with a win in this game. That draw means the host has not lost any of their last five matches although three of them have ended in draws. This is their first home Champions League game this season and it offers them a chance to show their fans they mean business, but Midtjylland has more experience and success in these qualifying matches. They visitors also have a very fine away form in all competition having won all their last five trips before this game and they would be keen to prove a point in this game as well. The first leg of this game was the first time both clubs are meeting, so it would be interesting to see who goes through to the next round of the qualifier.

Two in-form clubs meet in this game when Shamrock Rovers visit Ludogorets in Bulgaria and it promises to be an interesting fixture. The Champions League qualification matches are getting serious and both of these clubs will hope they will make the next round of the qualification for the group stages. Ludogorets eliminated Sutjeska from the last round by winning both legs of the tie and they proved to be one of Europe’s strongest sides in those fixtures. A clean sheet in both games mean they are one of the hardest clubs to score against as well, and this game offers them another chance to showcase that strength. Rovers eliminated Hibernians in the last round of the competition thanks to their 3-0 first leg win, because the reverse fixture ended in a goalless draw. It would be a tough game for both clubs, but the hosts will feel that they can get yet another win in this first leg. We will have to see how Rovers will perform.

Dinamo will continue their push towards returning to the Champions League group stage when they face Shkupi in this fixture. The Croatians are the clear favourites considering their history in the competition and they also look considerably stronger than their opponents. Shkupi made this round of the competition because they were lucky at the last one. Lincoln Red Imps nearly overturned their 3-0 win in the first leg, but they held on to win 3-2 on aggregate. They know this game would be harder and there would be much more work to do in this away leg of the fixture. Zagreb has been in decent form in recent games, winning their Super Cup and their opening league game of this season. They joined the UCL qualification at this stage and will be keen to avoid any kind of upset from their visitors. This is the first time both of these clubs have met and Shkupi will hope their poor run of form doesn’t make them lose this game by a huge scoreline.
