The Pershaya Liga league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Arsenal and Khimik Svetlogorsk are placed 8th and 14th respectively.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Arsenal form and stats

Arsenal's first Pershaya Liga home game here at Stadyen RTsOP-BGU ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 12 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat from 14 matches.

It's back home for Arsenal, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Granit away with the result 2-1. A. Kiyko (2) found the net in that victory. Before that game, the home loss against Oshmyany with the scoreline 0-3.

It would be a shock if the hosts fail to win this game. Let's see how Arsenal have performed as huge favourites like they are today: 13 games found in the database showing eleven Arsenal wins, one draw and one defeat.

Early season league goal statistics from Arsenal's 1 home game: 0 goals, 3 conceded.

Khimik Svetlogorsk form and stats

Khimik Svetlogorsk have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Pershaya Liga were 1 victory, 3 draws and 10 defeats from 14 fixtures.

Khimik Svetlogorsk aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 188 league minutes without a goal. D. Borisov (own goal) was the last player to find the net.

Svetlogorsk might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Krumkachy proved too strong as Khimik Svetlogorsk slumped to a 0-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Stadyen Chimik. Preceding that game, the 0-5 loss visiting Gomelzheldortrans's place.

Svetlogorsk lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.

The visitors come into this game as huge outsiders. This role is not totally unknown to them, as they have played 39 away matches before with similar winning odds. These games have ended with five wins, eight draws and 26 defeats. 17 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

Khimik Svetlogorsk have the goal stats of 0-5 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
