Venue: Stadyen Haradski Horki

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Gorki are in the 5th position while the guesting Polotsk worry at 10th.

Gorki and Polotsk should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Gorki form and stats

2-0-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Second Division numbers at home for Gorki so far this season.

Gorki lost their last game at Viktoriya Maryina Horka (placed 6th) after a 0-2 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Gorki won a home game hosting SMI Autotrans (1-0).

Gorki are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Gorki defense is not exactly impregnable. 7 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Polotsk form and stats

The manager S. Smolyakov is not happy with the away performances in the Second Division so far, as all 4 matches have been lost. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Polotsk have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Granit game. With the Polotsk losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

I. Kanonikh was the last player to score for the away team. Polotsk haven't scored a league goal in the last 204 minutes.

Polotsk failed to get anything from their last game, a Second Division home match vs Viktoriya Maryina Horka (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 0-3. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against SMI Autotrans wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Polotsk's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 4 matches. There are big problems for the Polotsk defense as they have conceded 18 goals in 4 away games.
