What They're Saying
Dynamo Kiev manager Serhiy Rebrov (via UEFA): "Obviously, we will have to play differently. We have to consider the mistakes we made in Liverpool. We have to play more aggressively, more confidently. Our task is to win and qualify for the next round. Romelu Lukaku is a key player, but we can't focus only on him. Leighton Baines, who has returned, is important; Luke Garbutt's free-kicks are very dangerous. There are many good players at Everton."
Everton manager Roberto Martinez: "We know it will be a very difficult match. Of course we respect Dynamo. They are a strong team who haven't lost at home [in any competition] this season, but we are ready for them as we are other big clubs in Europe. We haven't come here for a draw"

Player to Watch: Lukaku scored at timely goal for Everton in the club's 2-1 victory in the first leg. The 21-year-old has been unstoppable in European competition, posting seven goals and two assists.
