BATE Borisov – Slutsk, Premier League Prediction

Taking a brief account of the season and the game of BATE Borisov so far, we can conclude that this is the strongest team not only in terms of qualities, but also as a game. 2 strange losses from Energetik and Slavia at the beginning of the season should hardly puzzle anyone. These were the first rounds! The draw with Torpedo also, as Torpedo demonstrate a great game so far. The other matches, however, were won by BATE, who started the round as 1st in the standings and are in the final for the Cup.

Slutsk is a pleasant surprise from the beginning of the season, but it’s time for this team to lose. This happened in the last round against Energetik. New goal match and new 1-2, this time to the detriment of Slutsk, who can climb to 1st place in the standings in a victory over BATE in Saturday’s match. We believe that if BATE stop them in attack, however, they will take the match easily, because Slutsk cannot play defensively and at one point the defense remains quite bare.

 Expert view: Although Slutsk are extremely offensive against the background of the overall style of play in Belarus, and BATE has had many high-scoring matches lately, we will bet on a few goals here. The reason is that BATE have a very strong defense and if there is a team against which it will be difficult for Slutsk to score even 1 goal, it is BATE Borisov. Former champions often take similar clashes with 1-0, so our prediction here is Under 3.0 – Asian goal line at 1.77.

BATE have conceded only 4 goals in their last 15 matches against Slutsk
