FK Minsk vs Derry City Betting Tips
Minsk
The first leg in Northern Ireland was a clear one: Nino Galovic scored the second minute lead for the guests from Belarus. Vladimir Khvashchinski ensured in the 64th minute for the 2-0 final score and the comfortable starting position. As we already wrote in our preview of the first leg, Dinamo Minsk thus lived up to its role as a favorite. Dinamo Minsk is in the all-season championship in Belarus after 15 matchdays equal points with the second FK Vitebsk in third place. The gap to the leader BATE Borisov is 7 points. Dinamo, however, has played one less game against the two Besserklassierten. The capital club has suffered only one defeat this year – a 0-1 home defeat against BATE Borisov. Most recently, the Minsk celebrated 4 victories in a row. The club only had to concede 7 goals this season – that’s league top score! There are 20 goals scored against. In games with Dinamo participation fall so rather less hits. Most recently you have been without defeat 8 times in a row (5 wins, 2 draws). 8 times in a row Minsk was also allowed to celebrate at least one goal. Most recently, they were unbeaten 3 times in a row at home (2 wins, 1 draw). In eight home games this year, however, only get 8 own goals (with 5 goals conceded). The most recent games of the Minskers – in the last 8 matches 7 times a total of 2 goals or less – point in our view to an under bet. Top scorer for Minsk are Khvashchinski (14 missions) and Anton Saroka (10 missions), each with 4 goals. Best Assurer is Uros Nikolic with 5 assists this season. In the summer transfer period, the Belorussians were very cautious. Right Wing Artem Kiyko returned after loaning from FK Gorodeya. The central defense now stabilizes the experienced Portuguese Luís Rocha in addition. Artem Bykov comes back after a yellow-red-lock back into the squad of Belarussians.
Derry City
Derry City will plunge into the game with the courage of despair. This in turn will provide the hosts in the Traktar Stadium rooms. Conor McDermott will miss the chance to catch up with Derry. The left-back had seen the yellow-red card after repeated foul play in the first leg. In the first leg, the Northern Irish did not score a single shot on goal (Minsk: 7). Derry plays as a Northern Irish club in the Irish League Association. In the Irish Premier Division, which is also played all year round, Derry is currently ranked 5th in the previous year, qualified as a Ligavierter for the European Cup. The latest results sound anything but exhilarating in Derry’s view: of the last 4 duels, only one was won – a 2-1 home win over bottom of the table Limerick FC. Derry has a clearly negative record this year away: 4 times they could be happy about a threesome, once shared the Citizens with the opponent the points. 8 times the game was lost on foreign soil. The goal difference is 18:30. Of the last 3 away goals only 1 could be won (with 2 defeats). Aaron McEneff is the top scorer for Derry City this season. In the league he has already scored 10 times (including 4 penalties). Center-forward Ally Roy, who was hired by Heart of Midlothian, reinforced the offensive over the summer. In the midfield the Scot Aaron Splaine from FC Dunfermline will take over. Both were in the first leg in the starting eleven. Noteworthy is the fact that in this season in the various competitions already 13 different players in the scorer list could register. Already in the preseason for the Northern Irishmen in the first round of the Europa League qualification was over. Danish midfielder FC Midtjylland proved too big a hurdle – 1: 4 and 1: 6 were the devastating results. The winner of the match will face Dinamo Tbilisi’s knockout winner Dinamo Tbilisi (first leg 1-1) in the next round.
