Strugglers meet in the Belarus top-flight
2041
Two of the out of form teams in the Belarusian Premier League meet on Friday, as Torpedo Minsk host Neman Grodno.
The home side have endured a poor campaign in the league so far, picking up just six points from their opening 12 league outings, winning just once in the process. Their woeful form so far has seen the team from the capital slip to the bottom of the table.
However, they are just three points away from the safety of 14th place in the table, which is occupied by city-rivals FK Minsk. The home side has actually been pretty solid in defense this season, as only the teams in the leagues top five of the league have conceded fewer goals this season.
The problem for Torpedo Minsk is their terrible form in front of goal, as they have scored just three times in the league this season.
Five defeats in their last seven home league outings have not helped their chances of moving off the bottom of the table.
Despite their recent form, the meeting with Neman Grodno gives the home side the chance to improve their situation. In fact, they could not ask for better opponents to get back on track against.
The visitors have suffered five straight defeats in the league while conceding at least two goals in three of their last four league outings, which gives the goal-shy Torpedo a chance to pick up a positive result.
The recent poor results have left Neman Grodno tenth place in the table, just five points clear of the relegation zone. The visitors need to recover their form quickly if they are to avoid being dragged into the fight for survival this season. The fact that they have suffered two straight away defeats in the Belarusian Premier League will add to the hopes of the home side.
However, unfortunately for Torpedo, Forebet predicts that the visitors will end their poor run of form by recording a victory in a low-scoring clash.
