Date: Sun 01.September
Match begins: 16:45 (UTC)
Venue: Stadion FK Minsk (3100 seats)

The visiting BATE side should be favourites in this visit to Minsk, as the away team holds a 26 point advantage from their 17 league games this season.

It's no vacation for neither Minsk nor BATE as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

BATE play their home games on grass, while this game is played on artificial turf. Recent stats for BATE when playing on artificial turf are 6 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats from eight matches. They have scored 15 goals and conceded 10 times in these games.

Minsk form and stats

Minsk have played 9 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-4-2 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Minsk bring valid hopes of a third.

Minsk's last game was hosting BATE and winning 3-0. Prior to that, an away loss at Dnyapro.

Minsk are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 9 attempts. 11 goals have been conceded.

BATE form and stats

BATE's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed BATE, who have the fewest conceded goals (7) in Premier League, collect 16 points from their 7 away matches in the Premier League. 5 victories and 1 draw have created these points (and only 1 defeat). With two straight losses from their last two away games, BATE are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

BATE play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-3 to Minsk. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Astana in the Europa League.

The travelling fans enjoy BATE's attacking play in away games, having scored 11 goals in 7 league matches away. BATE's manager A. Baga has created a great defensive setup working very nicely in away games with only 3 conceded goals. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Head 2 Head

The teams have played each other before this season, with the result BATE - Minsk 1-0 entered in the official records. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Minsk won 1 game, 0 matches ended with a draw and BATE has 9 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 4 / 6
