Belshina form and stats

Belshina's first Pershaya Liga home game here at KFP Minsk Iskusstvennoe pole ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 2 wins, 2 draws and 11 defeats from 15 matches. It's trouble wherever Belshina are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The home stadium (KFP Minsk Iskusstvennoe pole) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Belshina it's been a house of straw as the last five games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

Belshina's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Volna (placed 3rd). Ahead of that match, Belshina lost 3-7 at home to Ruh Brest.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Belshina at home in the league. 0 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Last season, Belshina's league statistics were 5 wins, 6 draws and 19 losses, resulting in a 15th position in the Vysshaya Liga. Over these 30 matches they scored 34 goals and conceded 71. Playing at home last season Belshina managed 2-2-11 (win-draw-lost) with 18 goals and 42 conceded.
