Struggling Minsk will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Dinamo Brest in the upcoming league round. It’s 11th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Vysshaya Liga.
Relegation threatens Minsk who should definitely be looking for some points here. Dinamo Brest are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
