Belshina Bobruisk vs FC Vitebsk Picks
Belshina Bobruisk is with FC Smolevichi without any victory this season. He had 4 results under 2.5 goals and 4 over 2.5 goals, 3 NG results and 5 GG. I scored 2 goals out of 6 in the first half and 4 in the second. FC Vitebsk have won by one point in the last 3 stages, had 7 results under 2.5 goals and only one with over 2.5 goals, 6 results NG and 2 GG. I scored 3 goals out of 6 in the first half and 3 in the second half. Belshina Bobruisk had 1 draw and 3 defeats at home, and FC Vitebsk had 1 away game, 1 draw and 2 defeats. Both teams have a weak attack, scoring only 6 goals in 8 stages. Guests are easily favored at bookmakers, but it will not be easy to win on the court of the last ranked. It will be a match where anything can happen. According to local media, President Mikhail Bondarenko is disappointed that his team did not win and it seems that coach Eduard Gradoboyev will not continue if he does not win with FC Vitebsk.
I expect Belshina’s players to mobilize, to win the first match since returning to the Vysheyshaya Liga and to save their coach from dismissal. Vitebsk is in a 3-stage crisis and would probably settle for a point in Bobruisk.
Our Prediction: 1
Odds: 2.25
