Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Champions League fixtures, including Dynamo Kiev vs. Rangers.


Qarabag vs. Ludogorets (Tuesday, 5.00pm)

After sweeping through their first qualifying tie, Qarabag FK meet Bulgarian champions Ludogorets Razgrad on Tuesday, as they begin their battle for a place in the Champions League playoffs.

The Azeri side crushed Lincoln Red Imps to reach the third round, while their visitors for this week's first leg have already come through two knockout contests.

We say: Qarabag FK 2-1 Ludogorets Razgrad


As Ludogorets do not tend to travel well in Europe, a tough trip to Tofiq Bahramov Stadium may see their losing streak away from home continue.

Vastly experienced, Qarabag are similarly dominant domestically, and their fine Europa League run last term demonstrates just how dangerous they can be.

Malmo vs. PAOK (Tuesday, 6.00pm)

Malmo and PAOK continue their attempts to reach the main stage of the Champions League when they square off in the first leg of their third qualifying round tie on Tuesday evening.

Both teams came through entertaining tussles in the previous round to ensure that they will play some form of European competition from September onwards.

We say: Malmo 1-1 PAOK


With the stakes getting higher, we do not expect the goals to flow like they did in the previous round. Although PAOK deserve to be regarded as the marginal favourites to progress, we feel that Malmo having more competitive football under their belt will lead to a low-scoring draw being played out.

Midtjylland vs. Ferencvaros (Tuesday, 6.15pm)

In the first leg of the third Champions League qualifying round, FC Midtjylland are set to host Ferencvaros at MCH Arena on Tuesday.

The home side have five points in Denmark's premier division after three matchweeks, while the visitors have three points after one game in Hungary's top flight.

We say: FC Midtjylland 1-1 Ferencvaros


Considering the amount of shots that Midtjylland have conceded so far this season, it would be surprising if they left Hungary with a clean sheet.

Given his side are unbeaten so far under his reign, Ferencvaros boss Jansen will be confident of avoiding defeat in the first leg.

Dynamo Kiev vs. Rangers (Tuesday, 7.00pm)

Rangers embark on their latest Champions League qualifying campaign on Tuesday, when they travel to Poland for the first leg of a third qualifying round tie against Dynamo Kiev.

Both clubs finished runners-up in their respective leagues last season, and after Dynamo cruised through their first qualifier, the two sides are now vying for a place in the playoffs.

We say: Dynamo Kiev 1-0 Rangers


Despite the lack of home of advantage in Lubin, Dynamo Kiev had a better pre-season period than Rangers and were able to rest at the weekend after strolling through the second qualifying round; they should take a slim lead with them to Scotland's second city next week.

Sparta Prague vs. FCSB (Tuesday, 7.00pm)

In the first leg of the third Champions League qualifying round, Sparta Prague are set to host FCSB at epet ARENA on Tuesday.

The home side have nine points after three matchweeks in Czech Republic's top flight, while the visitors have two after three games in Romania's Liga 1.

We say: Sparta Prague 2-0 FCSB


Although FCSB are capable goalscorers, they only progressed to the current stage of the competition because of a late winner, and they could struggle to find the back of the net again on Tuesday.

Additionally, if Sparta's strong performances against Shamrock Rovers are anything to go by, then the hosts could come into the second leg with a sizeable advantage.

Lille vs. Fenerbahce (Tuesday, 7.30pm)

Continuing their first Champions League campaign with Jose Mourinho, Turkish giants Fenerbahce visit Ligue 1 side Lille on Tuesday, as they kick off their third round qualifying tie at Stade du Hainaut.

Both under new management this season, the two clubs will vie for a place in the playoff round, with entry to the lucrative group stage the ultimate prize.

We say: Lille 2-2 Fenerbahce


Fener may be able to catch Lille out early on, as the hosts have had no competitive action yet and will take time to get up to full speed. With both sides boasting plenty of European nous and attacking flair, a few goals should be expected in this first leg.

Salzburg vs. FC Twente (Tuesday, 7.45pm)

Both entering the Champions League qualifiers at the third-round stage, Red Bull Salzburg and FC Twente meet for the first leg of their tie on Tuesday.

The winner after next week's return in the Netherlands will progress to the playoffs, leaving them just one step away from the competition's new-look group phase.

We say: Red Bull Salzburg 3-1 FC Twente


A talented Salzburg squad eager to make up for last season's failures should take charge of this tie with a win on home turf. Twente will be found out at the back, and they may have a mountain to climb in next week's second leg.
