Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Gorodeya in 7th and Minsk in 8th place.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Gorodeya form and stats
Gorodeya have played three Vysshaya Liga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 3 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.
An away draw last time out for Gorodeya, facing Ruh Brest in a game that ended 1-1. Before that game, the home loss against BATE with the scoreline 0-2.
Gorodeya has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 1 goal from 3 games. 4 goals have been conceded.
Minsk form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most conceded goals (15) in Vysshaya Liga, on their Vysshaya Liga travels is 2 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats.
Minsk failed to get anything from their last game, a Vysshaya Liga home match vs Torpedo BelAZ (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 2-5. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Slavia at their stadium, the result 3-1.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Torpedo BelAZ was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
Minsk are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 6 times in 4 away games so far. 5 goals have been conceded by Minsk in these games.
Head 2 Head
Gorodeya-Minsk H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Gorodeya four wins, Minsk four wins, two draws. six of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
