Minsk are prepared for a new challenge after their 1-1 versus Gomel last time. Gomel are coming to visit!
- Minsk have the most clean sheets (9) at home in Vysshaya Liga
Minsk is in the 6th league table position and will remain there regardless of what happens for the rest of the season. For Gomel most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season. One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Gomel have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 2-3-2 (win-draw-loss) from seven matches.
It's no vacation for neither Minsk nor Gomel 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.
