Slavia Mozyr vs FC Minsk Prediction & Betting tips
Five games have already been played in the Belarusian Vysshaya League and the table still gives us an unusual picture. Neither the reigning champion Dinamo Brest nor the long-time industry leader BATE Borisov leads the ranking. The two highly-traded top clubs currently only share seventh place and have in common, among other things, that they were already the losers this season against Slavia Mozyr.
Before the duel on Saturday afternoon between Slavia Mozyr and FC Minsk, the odds of the best bookmakers swing relatively clearly in the direction of the home side, who, however, were only able to book another point in the remaining three matches and are therefore currently only in tenth place are.
The fact that they are nevertheless treated as favorites during the sixth match day is primarily due to the weak state of the guests from the capital. The red-blue-whites currently have to settle for 13th place, but recently suffered three defeats in a row, in which they were each without their own hit.
Before the encounter between Slavia Mozyr and FC Minsk, we therefore predict that a bet on the host – despite the lower quotes – contains more value than a bet on the underdog.

Slavia Mozyr:
In the south of Belarus there is a first division team that has already caused a sensation in the current season. We are talking about Slavia Mozyr. The team with the striking orange-black jerseys has so far been a household name for the absolute football insiders at the Eastern European level, but after the successful media campaigns in the young season, Coach Martinovich’s team hopes for a sustainably positive one Development.
If you are wondering why, considering seven points after five match days and the tenth place in the table that comes with it, we are talking about “successes”, then it should be noted that last year’s eighth in the Vysshaya League this spring saw both Dinamo Brest and Bate Borisov was already able to defeat. The multiple Champions League participant from Baryssau was put in the way twice (Cup & League).
It is just stupid that the orange-blacks have a much harder time against weaker opponents than against the top teams. In the remaining three matches, the Martinovich team jumped out only one draw. The other two games were lost, including last weekend’s 1-2 at Isloch Minsk.
The fact that Slavia Mozyr against FC Minsk can still claim the favorite role according to the odds on Saturday is primarily due to the fact that the home side has made a better footballing impression to date and also collected four points from two home games. Cross-season, Slavia, who comes from the south of Belarus, has been unbeaten for six meetings in front of its own fans. Four games were won.
Due to the decent home record of past days and the overall positive impressions after five games, it is definitely advisable to keep a forecast of the home win between Slavia Mozyr and FC Minsk in mind.
In terms of personnel, Coach Martinovich will be able to draw on unlimited resources so that he can also let the two top scorers Melnikov and Chukhley off the leash. The two were responsible for four of the six goals scored and are therefore part of the third best offensive in the country, which, however, had to concede seven goals (second weakest value in the league).
FC Minsk:
Four of the 16 first division teams from Belarus are based in the capital Minsk. If you were to draw an interim conclusion after five match days, FC Minsk would be in last place in the in-town championship. It doesn’t look that bad in the regular table, but the start of the season was anything but optimal.
But that is also only half the story, because the first two matches the red, white and blue could even win for themselves. However, three sobering bankruptcies followed, which washed back the team of coach Andrey Razin to twelfth place.
Of particular concern recently was the fact that the cup winner of 2013, who also crossed the finish line behind Slavia Mozyr in the last season, could hardly be beaten offensively in terms of harmlessness. The capital city club was without a goal three times in a row and also made it too easy for the opponents to score. Zero points and 0: 6 goals in the last 270 minutes of play speak for themselves.
For this reason, we are also skeptical whether the club founded in 2006, which also counted among the welcome guests in the Vysshaya League in 2019 with just one win in 15 away games (five draws, nine losses, 15:25 goals) can cause a surprise in Mozyr? In any case, we do not believe in it and therefore tend to assume a favorite three.
