Latest Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Dynamo Kiev team information
After scoring a brace against Hamrun Spartans in the previous round, Ido Shahar is likely to continue to keep his starting position in the midfield of Maccabi in the next match.
Osher Davida – who scored and assisted in that match – is expected to continue to start on the right flank.
On Dynamo Kiev's side, left-back Vladyslav Dubinchak was substituted just after half-time in the most recent European game, so is unlikely to start.
Therefore, the blue and white defense is likely to have changes, with 23-year-old defender Kostyantyn Vivcharenko competing for a starting position.

Latest football commentary on Maccabi Tel Aviv vs Dynamo Kiev
After winning the 2024-25 Israeli Premier League, Maccabi Tel Aviv was awarded a place in the second qualifying round of the Champions League, with the dream of advancing to the group stage where big teams like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich await.
However, the yellow team suffered a shock in the second qualifying round earlier this summer, losing 1-2 on aggregate to Pafos (Cyprus). This result forced the Israeli representative to move on to compete for a ticket to the group stage of the second-tier European tournament – Europa League – this season.
Maccabi eased past weak Hamrun Spartans (Malta) in the Europa League third qualifying round earlier this month, winning two straight games and a 5-2 aggregate score to book a place against Dynamo Kiev. Including their Toto Cup win over Hapoel Jerusalem, Maccabi are now on a three-game winning streak – their best run since the end of last season, when they won their 21st domestic title since 1949-50.
On the other hand, Dynamo Kiev started the 2025-26 season in the Ukrainian Premier League excellently, winning all 9 points after three rounds and temporarily leading the rankings with a gap of two points.
However, when it came to Europe, the journey of the blue and white team was full of thorns. They were defeated by Pafos – the team that eliminated Maccabi – in the third qualifying round of the Champions League, thereby forcing them to play in the Europa League playoffs.
In the 2024-25 season, Dynamo Kiev participated in the Europa League group stage but only won 1, drew 1 and lost 6 out of 8 matches, finishing 34th out of 36 teams and was eliminated early.
Remarkably, Dynamo Kiev have had nine different players score in just three opening domestic league games, scoring a total of 10 goals before their midweek trip to TSC Arena (Serbia).
