On Sunday, starting at 12:00, the match Isloch Minsk – Belshina will be played, from the 8th round of the Belarus Premier League, 2020 edition. The last direct meeting took place in 2017, 4-1 for Isloch Minsk, in away, match counting for the last 16 of the Belarus Cup. In the domestic championship, Belshina won 3-2 away and drew at home, score 0-0, both in the 2016 season.
Isloch Minsk made an excellent start in the new season, but 3 defeats in the previous 5 stages sent the team to fifth place, with 12 points, 4 away from the leader Slutsk. The group’s goal difference became negative, 9-11, after the failure of the previous stage, 0-4 at Soligorsk. However, Isloch Minsk is the only team with 5 matches played on their own field, where they obtained 4 victories and one defeat, 2-3 with Slutsk.
Instead, Belshina is the weakest team this season, with only two points and a goal difference of 5-13. Along with Smolevichi, the guest team is the only one without an external victory in 2020, but it did not have catastrophic evolutions. Moreover, they lost 3-2 to the leader Slutsk, away, in the 6th round, a match in which they equalized at 2 and lost the points in the 87th minute, in numerical inferiority.
Isloch Minsk is the favorite to get the three points, but after the “roll” with Soligorsk, the hosts may have some difficulties against those from Belshina. We are expecting a match in which at least 2 goals will be scored and it would not be a big surprise if the guests will also score!
PREDICTION: Isloch to win @ 1,61
