BATE Preview – Can BATE grab third win on trot?
Following a disastrous start to their new Belarus top flight campaign which saw BATE lose their first two matches of the new season, Saturday’s hosts have turned things around by recording two wins on the trot in recent weeks to give them some valuable momentum heading into this upcoming clash against Torpedo Zhodino.
Back-to-back defeats to Energetyk-BGU and Slavia Mozyr in 3-1 and 2-1 losses respectively wasn’t the kind of start that BATE had had in mind before this new Belarus top flight season began, but it’s worth noting that both of these defeats were incurred away from home.
The hosts have since staged an impressive comeback as they’ve collected two wins on the trot against Rukh Brest 1-0 and a 3-0 win on the road at FC Minsk, which has helped lift BATE up into a more respectable 8th place.
Having lost just 1 of their last 14 matches at home which includes no fewer than 12 wins, BATE will be confident that they can grab another three points here.
Torpedo Zhodino Preview – Can Zhodino hold onto top spot?
Current Vysshaya Liga leaders, Torpedo Zhodino, face arguably their biggest test yet this season as they prepare for this difficult looking trip to face a fast improving BATE outfit on Saturday as the visitors look to hold onto their early top spot in the Belarus top flight table.
Torpedo Zhodino have made a promising start to this new campaign having won 3 of their first 4 matches of the new term with wins accrued over Shakhtyor Soligorsk, Belshina and Energetyk-BGU, while their one defeat to date was a 2-0 loss away from home at Dinamo Minsk.
This defeat is an important indication of Zhodino’s performances on the road in the Vysshaya Liga as the visitors have managed just 1 win out of their last 6 matches on their travels, which also includes 4 defeats.
