FC Dynamo Kyiv in European football participates with small breaks since 1965. Based in Pechersk, Kyiv, it represented the Soviet Union until 1992. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union at the end of 1991, Dynamo represents its native Ukraine.
Representing the Soviet Union, Dynamo made a European debut in the 1965–66 European Cup Winners' Cup as a "test bunny". It was the only Soviet club that participated in that UEFA season. Since 1965, Dynamo has missed only five seasons and holds the record for the most seasons in European competitions among Soviet and Ukrainian clubs. With two UEFA Cup Winners' Cup trophies, it is also the most successful Soviet club in European competitions.
Dynamo's home stadium is the Dynamo imeni Valeriya Lobanovskoho located in Pechersk, Kyiv. However, for matches that require high-volume crowd capacity, in particular the UEFA club competitions, Dynamo leases the Olimpiyskiy National Sports Complex, which is also located in the Pecherskyi District, but at a distance. On several occasions, Dynamo used other stadiums as its home field in the European competitions.
