It's a brand new David Kipiani Cup campaign and Dinamo Batumi are eager to get started here at Baumit Arena. Dinamo Tbilisi are coming to town and this should be a fascinating season launch.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Dinamo Batumi form and stats
It's the first season at a new level for Dinamo Batumi as they were promoted from Erovnuli Liga last season. Happy days that were secured through 18 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses from 26 games. The team scored 49 goals at home last season and conceded 13. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Dinamo have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 4 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 0.
The manager Geguchadze will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Torpedo Kutaisi in only four days.
Dinamo Tbilisi form and stats
A job perfectly done for Dinamo Tbilisi last season as they secured promotion from Erovnuli Liga. With a grand total of 17 wins, 5 draws and 4 defeats the season objective was secured. Of these wins, 6 were in away matches.
Dinamo Tbilisi are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 1 draw and 3 defeats. From a total of 5 matches.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Dinamo Tbilisi manager Tchiabrishvili as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Gagra.
