BATE welcome the visitors MOL Vidi in the Europa League Group Stage – Round 5. The match will be held on Thursday, November 29th at the Borisov Arena (Barysaw).
We will say this, BATE MUST WIN THIS MATCH. By no means we may call BATE three times stronger than the opponent, but the Barysaw team have a very good omen here – they had 3 weeks at their disposal to prepare to this very match. The club’s mission in the championship has been completed long ago. The table stands for the Belarus champion – they have to win the coming match and then travel to Greece, holding all the cards. There are all indications that the home win is possible. Vidi can be called a comfortable opponent for BATE. In 2015, BATE successfully passed the former Videoton in the Champions League qualification – 1:0 home win and 1:1 draw away. In the present Europa League, BATE have already got a confident victory on the Hungarian soil, 2:0.

As for the guests, their schedule is very tight. The team really fail to compete in two tournaments at a time. While they have somehow won PAOK in the Europa League, the position in the national championship got uncontrollable. Nikolic’ team currently occupy yet the third place, many points off the first one, but a further regression seems very possible. The opponents are tough and ready to bring the club down from the pedestal. It is unclear how the Greeks happened to lose to these players which, to say the least, are not the strongest by the group stage parameters. We can explain this by some underestimation only, as the Hungarian team will not even feature top 30 of 48 competitors in the league, if to judge by their results, class, and strengths.
We consider hosts clear favorites in the coming match. BATE need to win only. They can obviously outclass an opponent like Vidi on their home turf.
Prediction for the match: BATE to win home.
