Previous meetings • The sides' only past encounter was in the first round of the 1976/77 European Cup, when Valeriy Lobanovskiy's Dynamo beat Tomislav Kaloperović's Partizan 3-0 at home and 2-0 in Belgrade. • The teams when they last met in Belgrade, on 29 September 1976 – almost 31 years to the day before the upcoming fixture – were: Partizan: Ivančević, Antić, Kozić, Hatunić, Tomić (Stojković 8), Kunovac, Zavišić, Trifunović, Paunović (Grubješić 46), Perović, Prekazi. Dynamo: Rudakov, Konkov, Matviyenko (Zuyev 14), Kuznetsov, Reshko, Troshkin, Muntyan, Slobodyan, Buryak, Berezhnoy, Blokhin. • Partizan's overall record in eight meetings with Ukrainian clubs is W2 D1 L5. • Dynamo also eliminated Partizan's neighbours Crvena zvezda on away goals after 0-0 and 1-1 draws in a 2000/01 UEFA Champions League qualifier, and are thus unbeaten in four meetings with Serbian opponents: W2 D2. Form guide • Partizan's draw at Young Boys (1-1) on matchday one was their third in their last four European games (W1 D3). • Dynamo are without a win in six European away matches, but four of those ended in draws (D4 L2). They have scored just once in the course of that run. • Serbian league and cup winners in 2016/17, Partizan have reached the UEFA Europa League group stage for the fifth time in the competition's current incarnation, but are yet to progress to the round of 32. • Ukrainian league runners-up in 2016/17, Dynamo reached the UEFA Europa League quarter-finals in 2010/11 and 2014/15, when they last competed in this group stage. Links and trivia • The journey from Kyiv to Belgrade is around 1,000km. • Dynamo's Serbian defender Aleksandar Pantić started out as a trainee at Partizan but never made a senior appearance for the club, representing their city rivals Rad (2011–12) and Crvena zvezda (2012–13) before moving abroad. Pantić played with Partizan's Lazar Ćirković at Rad. The coaches • Miroslav Djukić was assigned a second stint as Partizan coach in June 2017, having occupied the helm in 2007. The 48-times capped Yugoslavia sweeper played in Spain with Deportivo and Valencia, and has spent much of this decade coaching there too. • Hired as coach in July 2017, Aleksandr Khatskevich won seven league titles as a Dynamo player from 1996–2004, and later worked with their youth and reserve teams. The 38-times capped international coached his native Belarus from 2014–16. 4 FK Partizan - FC Dynamo Kyiv Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stadion FK Partizan, Belgrade Team facts FK Partizan Formed: 1945 Nickname: Crno-beli (Black-and-Whites) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • European Champion Clubs' Cup: (1966) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 27 (2017) Yugoslavian/Serbian Cup: 14 (2017) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: second qualifying round 2015/16: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2014/15: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2013/14: play-offs (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2012/13: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2011/12: play-offs (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2010/11: UEFA Champions League group stage 2009/10: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2008/09: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2007/08: first qualifying round Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 8-0: Partizan v Rhyl 21/07/09, UEFA Champions League second qualifying round second leg • Biggest away win 1-6: Zrinjski v Partizan 19/07/07, UEFA Cup first qualifying round first leg 0-5: Slavia Sofia v Partizan 12/10/88, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Partizan v Beşiktaş 23/10/14, UEFA Europa League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 5-0 on three occasions, most recently v Dinamo Zagreb 30/07/97, UEFA Champions League first qualifying round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 5-0 twice, most recently v Slavia Sofia 07/09/88, first round first leg • Biggest away win 1-6: Zrinjski v Partizan (see above) 0-5: Slavia Sofia v Partizan (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Partizan v Beşiktaş (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: Videoton v Partizan 28/11/84, UEFA Cup third round first leg FC Dynamo Kyiv Formed: 1927 Nickname: Bilo-Syni (White-Blues) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (2): 1975, 1986 5 FK Partizan - FC Dynamo Kyiv Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stadion FK Partizan, Belgrade • UEFA Super Cup (1): 1975, (1986) Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) National title: 28 (2016) National cup: 20 (2015) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: UEFA Champions League group stage 2015/16: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2014/15: quarter-finals 2013/14: round of 32 2012/13: round of 32 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2011/12: group stage (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2010/11: quarter-finals (having transferred from UEFA Champions League play-offs) 2009/10: UEFA Champions League group stage 2008/09: semi-finals (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2007/08: UEFA Champions League group stage Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 8-0: Dynamo v Barry Town 22/07/98, UEFA Champions League first qualifying round first leg • Biggest away win 1-6: Coleraine v Dynamo 02/09/65, UEFA Cup Winners' Cup preliminary round first leg 0-5: Beşiktaş v Dynamo 14/03/87, European Champion Clubs' Cup quarter-final first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-4 four times, most recently v AS Roma 27/11/07, UEFA Champions League group stage 0-3 on three occasions, most recently v Lyon 17/10/2006, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 5-0 twice, most recently v Juventus 24/09/02, UEFA Champions League group stage UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 5-1: Dynamo v Aktobe 29/08/13, play-off second leg 4-0 twice, most recently v MTK Budapest 13/09/89, first round first leg • Biggest away win 1-4 twice, most recently v Beşiktaş 17/02/11, round of 32 first leg 0-3: Rio Ave FC v Dynamo 18/09/14, group stage • Heaviest home defeat 0-3: Dynamo v Anderlecht 04/11/92, second round second leg • Heaviest away defeat 3-0 twice, most recently v AaB v Dynamo 23/10/14, group stage 6 FK Partizan - FC Dynamo Kyiv Thursday 28 September 2017 - 21.05CET (21.05 local time) Match press kit Stadion FK Partizan, Belgrade Squad list FK Partizan Current season All-time UCL QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No.
