Dynamo Kyiv will host Ferenvaros in their final UEFA Champions League Group G match on Tuesday.

With Juventus and Barcelona having already sealed qualification to the knockout rounds, this is effectively a winner-takes-all fixture, with the winner of the clash securing Europa League football in the new year.

Both teams come into this match on the back of away victories domestically, with a 10-man Dynamo Kyiv holding out for a 2-1 win over Mariupol, while Ferencvaros were 3-1 victors away to Diosgyori.

The first leg meeting between the two sides in Hungary was the first time both teams faced off in an official competition. Dynamo Kyiv and Ferencvaros played out a highly-entertaining 2-2 draw in that match.

They had earlier met in a friendly fixture back in January 2013 when Ferencvaros narrowly edged the clash 3-2.

Dynamo Kyiv vs Ferencvaros Prediction

With nothing else left to play for, both sides will give their all to ensure that they are still playing continental football early next year.

Dynamo Kyiv are the traditionally better side, with more pedigree and experience in Europe, and an end to their continental sojourn in December would be considered a disaster.

The hosts boast a good record on their own turf, but will have their work cut out against a Ferencvaros side with nothing to lose.

The Hungarian champions are capable of getting the job done but ultimately, Dynamo Kyiv's pedigree and experience should see them through.

Prediction: Dynamo Kyiv 2-1 Ferencvaros
