The profile of Dnipro that Panathinaikos will find against him in the Champions League

So, Dnipro, or if you want Dnipro-1 as it is, now, the official name of the team, after the dissolution of the… old team, which had reached the final of the Europa League in 2015! Panathinaikos will face the Ukrainian team in the second qualifying round of the Champions League, with the draw smiling on the “greens”, who preferred it over Genk for a number of reasons. But who is Dnipro?

What did he do this season?

The year started very strongly for the team of Oleksandr Kutcher, which, in fact, even fought for the title until the last “turns” of the Ukrainian championship. However, he failed to last until the final and with two consecutive defeats, he could not get close to Shakhtar. In fact, the 2nd place came in a tie with Zoria, with Dnipro having the advantage and thus checking the “ticket” for the Champions League qualifiers. In Europe, he had a very good run in the Conference League, knowing the exclusion from AEK Larnaca, with the Cypriot team advancing to the “16” of the competition.

The coach

Oleksandr Kucher took over the team last summer and took very little time to build a very competitive squad, which came very close to winning the Ukrainian league. He is considered one of the up-and-coming coaches in his homeland, while – especially – after the excellent run with Dnipro this season, he is expected to catch the eye of many teams, even outside the borders.

The star

The big star of the team is undoubtedly Artem Dovbyk. With a market value of 11 million euros (according to transfermarkt), the 25-year-old striker has already attracted several suitors for his acquisition. This season the numbers speak for themselves, as he scored 29 goals and 8 assists in 39 appearances in all competitions.

The tradition with Greek teams

Dnipro -SC Dnipro-1 as its official name is now – has never faced a Greek team before, since it was founded only in 2015! Yes, understand well, since it is not… exactly the team that eliminated Olympiacos in the Europa League in 2015! That team, we remind you, had reached the final, losing to Sevilla.

Nevertheless, there is a relationship between the two teams, as the current Dnipro “absorbed” the previous team (academies, facilities), which has now been disbanded. He was in the first division just four years ago, in 2019, and in record time he has reached the very top tiers of the leaderboard.
