Player to watch – Ivan Bakhar
Dinamo winger Ivan Bakhar is likely to be one of the most dangerous attacking forces in this game. The 26-year-old scored five times in 14 appearances last term in the Belarussian top flight.
A threat just before the break
60% of Bakhar’s league goals last term came in the final ten minutes of the first half. His solitary European goal so far this season, also came in that window against Ludogorets.
