Lida will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 19 points behind Sputnik.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Pershaya Liga game only three days ago. That game was also an away game, at Krumkachy. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
