Minsk are welcoming Belshina for another important game after their 1-1 result against 2nd-placed Shakhtyor.
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!
5-2-1 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Belshina when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those eight matches are 19-10 (scored/conceded).
Minsk form and stats
Minsk have collected 7 points from their Vysshaya Liga home games so far after 2-1-3.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Minsk, who played 1-1 against Shakhtyor. That match was also played at this venue (Stadyen Traktar). Prior to that, an away loss at Vitebsk.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Minsk handle that role? We have found four games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are two wins, zero draws and two defeats.
Minsk are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 6 games. Minsk are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (12 from 6 played).
Belshina form and stats
There's been little loot from Belshina's travels as they have only collected 4 points from 7 away games in the Vysshaya Liga. Belshina, who have the most conceded goals (32) in Vysshaya Liga, only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.
Belshina aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 223 league minutes without a goal. L. Kovel was the last player to find the net.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Belshina, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Ruh Brest (placed 11th). Preceding that, the 0-2 home loss versus BATE.
Belshina lost heavily in their last match (against Ruh Brest as mentioned above) and the damage happened in the first half. Something did not go right in the pre-game preparations.
We have checked recent matches where Belshina have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those three games were zero victories, one draw and two defeats.
The attacking power of Belshina when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 7 league matches away. Belshina have conceded 14 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; Belshina - Minsk 1-3. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Minsk won six games, two matches ended with a draw and Belshina has two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / fourTop Goalscorers
