FC Minsk Preview – Can FC Minsk build on recent win?
A slightly surprising 3-1 win away from home at Slavia Mozyr ended FC Minsk’s 3-match losing streak in the Belarus top flight last weekend and they now return to home turf for this upcoming clash against 3rd placed Torpedo Zhodino who were held to a 0-0 draw at home last Saturday.
FC Minsk had previously suffered 3 defeats on the trot to Energetyk-BGU 2-0 away, a 3-0 loss at home to BATE and a 1-0 defeat on the road at Rukh Brest but last week’s win on their travels at Slavia will certainly have been a welcome boost for this Saturday’s hosts.
Overall form and results at home have been pretty steady for FC Minsk in recent times as the hosts have captured 9 wins from their last 12 matches at home in the Vysshaya Liga, and this impressive sequence of results also includes a 2-0 home win over Torpedo Zhodino in their last clash at home back in August of last year.
Torpedo Zhodino Preview – Can Zhodino break draw sequence?
Despite being held to a 0-0 draw at home by Rukh Brest last weekend, Torpedo Zhodino have still only lost once so far in this season’s Vysshaya Liga which came in the shape of a 2-0 defeat away from home at Dinamo Minsk.
It’s two draws on the trot though for Torpedo Zhodino which has cost the visitors top spot in the early jostling for the league leadership and they now occupy 3rd place in the Vysshaya Liga standings with the majority of their early successes coming on home turf at their Stadyen Tarpeda, having won 2 of their 3 wins to date in their own backyard.
Results away from home have produced a mixed bag of returns for Zhodino who registered a 1-0 win on the road at Shakhtyor Soligorsk but this has been their only win from their last 7 matches on their travels in the Belarus top flight, and they’ve failed to beat FC Minsk in each of their last four visits as well.
