Tip and bets
Both teams looked pretty weak both last season and in friendly matches. At the beginning of the season, it will obviously take time to get in shape, so you should not expect effective football.

Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals per 1.70

It is difficult to determine a clear favorite in this match, but the opponents are about equal in level. Last season, the hosts finished higher, and they managed to score four points in face-to-face matches. We believe that Minsk residents can win here, besides, they will have the support of the fans on their side.
