Dynamo Brest from Belarus and Astana from Kazakhstan meet at Regional Sports Complex Brestsky Stadium in Brest on Tuesday 18 for an interesting matchup of the 2nd qualifying round for the UEFA Champions League group phase.
Dynamo Brest doesn’t have much European Cup experience but they are one of the strongest Belarusian clubs in recent years and their reigning champions. Belarusian club football came in notice after the start of the coronavirus pandemic because they were the only league in the world that organized matches with the audience at that moment. If there is an advantage for Dynamo in this one leg encounter it is their playing tone because Astana didn’t play competitive matches since March.
On the other side, Dynamo is not in good form in the new season because they are currently a ninth-placed team in the domestic league of 16 clubs with just 29 points after 19 matches. They had many ups and downs from the start of the league and their current form is far from ideal. After a good spell of games at the end of June and almost all July when they had four victories from five matches now they have just one win in the last five games with three of them ending in defeat. They don’t have an established striker because the best scorer in this team is Laptev with only six goals in 15 games.
Dynamo has some decent footballers like ex Ukrainian national players as Khacheridi and Milevskii who have major experience even in the Champions League with Dynamo Kyiv. Also, they have several Belarus national team players but their results in European cups are not good, with only two home victories with Apollon Limassol and Atromitos from six games played in recent years.
Astana is the reigning champion of Kazakhstan. The club is founded in 2009 just like the semifinalist of the UEFA Champions League, Leipzig. In the short history of the club already achieved six league titles in a row, three Kazakhstan Cups, and three Kazakhstan Super Cups. They have a very good record in European Cups.
Astana played two times in Group round of the Champions League and four times in Group stages of the UEFA Europa League with solid performances and results. They have wins against teams as Maribor, HJK Helsinki, APOEL, BATE Borisov, Legia, Celtic, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Midtjylland, Stade Rennais, Jablonec CFR Cluj, and Manchester United. They were better than Red Devils at home with a 2-1 victory in Group Stage of the UEL taking advantage of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer lineup with a mix of youngsters and players that didn’t have too much playing time at the moment.
Astana is very difficult to beat at their Arena and they lost only seven from 38 European games at home. On the other side, they are not so good as visitors and that could be a problem for the new coach Michal Bilek, former coach of the Kazakhstan national team. Their roster is full of Kazakhstan internationals but for European success, they are heavily dependent on established foreign players.
Footballers like Rukavina from Serbia, Sotiriou from Cyprus, Tomašević from Montenegro, Sigurjónsson from Iceland give them an edge against rivals that don’t have such quality in their roster. They had problems with training sessions because Astana Arena is still closed for repairs so they moved from the Nur Sultan area to Almaty so that the team would have a continuous training process and try to adapt to the new playing vision from coach Bilek. Due to the long pause because of quarantine, this year's Kazakhstan championship will be shorter than the previous ones, and this reduces the margin for error but they will be more focused on entering the group of one of the European cups.

In one game affair, everything is possible but Astana must be favorites for this match regarding their roster and European cups experience. On the other side, Dynamo will play at home and try to exploit Astana's major weakness, not so good performances as visitors. Astana win and under 2,5 goals should be preferable bets for this game.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
