Energetyk and FC Minsk to both score in early top table clash
Energetik-BGU vs FK Minsk - 05/04/2020
3204
Sunday’s lunchtime clash in the Belarus top flight sees the current top two teams in the Vysshaya Liga pit their wits against each other as Energetyk-BGU play host to FC Minsk at their Stadyen RTsOP-BGU.
Energetyk have carried their form from the latter stages of last season’s Vysshaya Liga campaign into the early rounds of matches in this new term as the hosts have captured maximum points from their opening two matches of the new season.
Victories over BATE 3-1 at home and a 1-0 win away from home at Rukh Brest have helped Energetyk up into 2nd place in the Belarus top flight and level on 6 points with early league leaders, FC Minsk, who have also impressed in the early matches of this new season.
Energetyk have now won 5 of their last 6 matches overall in the Vysshaya Liga but their resolve is likely to be tested by FC Minsk on Sunday, so perhaps the goal markets appeal here as 12 of Energetyk’s last 16 home matches have seen both teams score.
Onto FC Minsk, and the visitors have also hit early season form as they currently sit top of the Vysshaya Liga on goal difference, thanks to securing back-to-back wins against Belshina 3-1 away from home and last weekend’s 3-2 home win over local rivals, Dinamo Minsk.
These two encouraging results are on the back of two matches without defeat at the end of the last campaign as FC Minsk picked up a 1-0 home win over Shakhtyor Soligorsk and then a point in a 1-1 draw on the road at Isloch Minsk.
The visitors therefore bring an encouraging sequence of results into this upcoming Sunday lunchtime clash, but they too will be tested by Energetyk who have also impressed so far this season, and who also have home advantage behind them.
With just 2 away wins out of their last 17 matches on the road in the Vysshaya Liga, the goals markets definitely appeal where FC Minsk are concerned, especially as 8 of their last 14 away matches have also seen both teams hit the back of the net.
In 3 of the last 5 meetings between these two clubs have seen both teams score too.
With both Energetyk and FC Minsk showing good early form, we could see both teams score here.
