Zhodino Preview – Can newcomers hold their own?
Torpedo Zhodino ended a dismal run of three defeats on the trot in last weekend’s season-opener in the Vysshaya Liga when they registered a valuable 1-0 win away from home at Shakhtyor which has made Friday night’s hosts amongst one of the early front-runners in the Belarus top flight.
Zhodino had previously suffered three defeats on the trot in the Belarus top flight at the end of last season with defeats incurred against Energetyk-BGU, Dnyapro and BATE, but nevertheless, Torpedo Zhodino finished last season’s campaign in a creditable 6th place which they’ll be hoping to emulate this term.
An overall home record of 7-4-4 21/14 included just two defeats out of their last 10 matches on home turf at their Stadyen Tarpeda and also included wins in the run-in against Neman Grodno, Gomel and Dinamo Minsk – the latter being a 4-0 romp.
Belshina Preview – Can Belshina make a stand on the road?
Last season’s 1.Division title winners, Belshina, played their season-opener against FC Minsk on Sunday lunchtime where the hosts were handed a heavy 3-1 defeat despite producing promising pre-season form into this new Belarussian top flight campaign.
Belshina lost just 3 of their 11 pre-season matches in what was a fairly lengthy warm-up for the new season, but it looks like they could be amongst the strugglers near the lower reaches of the Vysshaya Liga this term unless they can turn things around quickly.
It’s been four seasons since Belshina were last in the Belarus top flight and their relegation season ended with the hosts failing to win any of their last 7 matches and indeed, managed to pick up just 1 win from their last 15 matches overall in that campaign.
Belshina will head to Zhodino having registered just 1 win out of their last 9 matches away from home in the Belarus top flight.
