The Pershaya Liga league table tells a tale about these participants up until now, with Dnepr Mogilev ahead of Lida by 17 points. Tipsway full preview:

Insights:
  • Dnepr Mogilev have the most dropped points from leading position (15) in Pershaya Liga
  • Lida have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

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.

This field has grass, which is not Lida's usual surface at their own football field. When playing on grass Lida have performed like this: Played 29 matches yielding 14 wins, 5 draws and 10 defeats with the goal data 41-38 (scored/conceded).

Dnepr Mogilev are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Lida have already sealed their fate; they will finish in 10th place no matter what happens.

Dnepr Mogilev form and stats

Dnepr Mogilev have played 11 Pershaya Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-4-2 (wins-draws-losses).

The Dnepr Mogilev supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Orsha in Pershaya Liga and win 6-2. As indicated by the result mentioned above, Mogilev played a great game against Orsha and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one. What a game it was for K. Sidorenko when beating Orsha, applying the finishing touch to three goals!

Preceding that game was the away draw at Gomelzheldortrans that finished 1-1.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (25 in 11 games), Dnepr Mogilev's attacking play is working. On the other hand, Mogilev have conceded 13 goals. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Lida lost away at Naftan (2-3) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

A 0-4 loss hosting Belshina before that.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Lida's match history for similar games we find three matches. The home team won one of these as expected, one of them by at least two goals. Lida managed two draws and zero surprise wins.

Lida are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 11 games (in the league). Lida have conceded 22 goals in these games.
