Dinamo Brest – Viktoria Plzen

This tie is far from over but Viktoria Plzen take a narrow 2-1 lead into the 2nd let in Belarus. Whichever side progresses will take one step closer to the Champions League proper and a huge payday. Viktoria Plzen will be disappointed not to have kept a clean sheet in the 1st leg but know that a one-goal lead is better than nothing heading into the decider. Dinamo Brest pulled a late goal back to give themselves a chance of progressing into the next qualifying round.

Both teams scored in the 1st leg and we’re expecting more of the same in Belarus on Thursday. Four of Dinamo Brest’s last six matches have ended with both teams scoring, while three of Viktoria Plzen’s last five outings have also seen both teams score.
