Energetik-BGU 2 hosts Smolevichi 2 in round 7 of Belarusian Vysshaya Liga Reserve. The match will be played on Thursday, April 30th at RCOP-BGU Stadium (Minsk)
Energetik-BGU 2 does not look very confident in the current season of the Belarusian Premier League Reserve - if the first team is trying to stay among the leaders, the reserve managed to score only five points in the first six rounds, which corresponds to the 12th position in the standings. I cannot but note that the matches involving BGU are quite boring (by the standards of the Premier League Reserve) – an average of 2.5 goals per match is scored. Now the hosts will have to play against Smolevichi, which has not shown any special results either, so they have some chances for success. In such a situation, one should not expect some reckless game based on endless quick attacks of Energetik; nevertheless, not only entertainment is at stake, but points for which the team must fight.

Having nine points in the assets, Smolevichi is currently on the eighth line in the standings of the Premier League Reserve, and this is a quite good indicator. The problem is that today's visitors earned all their points in the first three rounds, but the matches with Shakhtyor, Belshina, and Dynamo Minsk ended in complete failures for Smolevichi. Of course, the team considers the battle with Energetik as a chance to break a streak of failures and start a new successful series. The visitors have difficulties with the attack - Smolevichi managed to score only two goals in three last meetings as part of the local championship. Today it is hardly worth expecting big attacking accomplishments from Smolevichi. There will be a struggle for the result, and brightness does not come in the first place in such a situation.
It seems to me that it is worth taking advantage of the overestimation of the teams’ attacking potentials. Yes, the matches involving Energetik and Smolevichi have been quite productive lately, but now both teams will be motivated to gain the result, so I don’t expect agility. I think the teams won’t score more than four goals.
Prediction for the match: Under 4.5 goals scored
