Sturm Graz will welcome Dynamo Kiev to the Merkur Arena for the second leg of their Champions League third qualifying round tie on Tuesday night.
Dynamo Kiev managed to clinch a 1-0 home advantage against Sturm Graz in the first leg of this fixture last week.
The Ukraine domestic league is yet to return and thus Dynamo Kiev have not been in action since the first leg, but with two victories from their last three matches gives them confidence to hang onto their one-goal lead.
However, they have a mountain to climb on Tuesday as they face Sturm Graz, who have not lost any of their last five home matches, winning all the last three.
Sturm Graz drew 1-1 with 10-men SV Reid in their Austrian Bundesliga last Saturday and will be looking to make amends before the Tuesday’s clash.
