Despite trailing 3–2 from the first leg, Dynamo Kiev remains fully in this tie and possesses the tactical tools to avoid defeat in Greece. Facing a PAOK side navigating a transitional era under new manager Alessio Lisci, Dynamo's attack proved its potency by netting twice away from home through Volodymyr Brazhko and Justin Lonwijk. With Lonwijk likely promoted to the starting lineup alongside Matviy Ponomarenko and Nazar Voloshyn, Kiev carries lethal forward momentum to exploit any early home complacency. Facing a narrow one-goal margin and a PAOK flank missing key winger Taha Ali, Dynamo Kiev holds the offensive firepower and motivation to at least secure a draw and stay undefeated on the night.
