In the second round of the Europa League group stage, Hoffenheim will face Dynamo Kyiv at PreZero Arena in Sinsheim. At the start of this stage, the Blue-Whites avoided defeat against Midtjylland in Herning with a 90th-minute goal, finishing 1-1. However, without the efforts of goalkeeper Oliver Baumann, who made six saves, the late goal would not have mattered. Shovkovskyi's team lost to Lazio's reserve lineup in Hamburg, conceding three goals before halftime, 0-3. Maksym Braharu was sent off just nine minutes after coming on in the second half. The hosts will be missing at least six players due to injuries.

In their brief history in European competitions (debuting in 2017), the Blue-Whites have already faced representatives of the Ukrainian Premier League.

Before the group stage, Dynamo played six matches in the Champions League qualifiers. The Ukrainian giants eliminated Partizan (6-2, 3-0) and Rangers (2-0, 1-1) but were knocked out by Salzburg (0-2, 1-1). In their last ten away games in the Europa League, the White-Blues have managed to defeat only Club Brugge, 1-0. The Kyiv side failed to score in six of their previous nine matches in the tournament.
