Dinamo Minsk vs Larne Prediction

It has been a tough league phase for Belarussian side Dinamo Minsk and Northern Irish outfit Larne as they sit bottom and second from bottom of the ladder having lost all four matches so far.

Both teams still have a remote chance of finishing in the top 24 positions but it would take an incredible set of results for that to happen so it is mainly pride at stake coming into this match.

With Dinamo unable to play their home matches in Belarus, they will host Larne in Sumqayit in Azerbaijan where they have played their previous matches. They were competitive in both home matches so far losing 1-2 to both Hearts and FC Copenhagen so they will be confident they can get a positive result against a lesser side here.

Larne have shown that they are coming to grips with the quality in the Conference League in their last couple of matches. They were beaten by a three-goal margin in their first two matches against Molde and Shamrock Rovers but have slipped to one-goal losses in their last two. They will be hoping to get something out of this game and even a point would be something for them to view as a step forward.

That all said, this is a long old trip for Larne and they will not find this easy at all. Dinamo Minsk are nothing special themselves but they will fancy their chances of getting at least a point and they are worth considering to get the win here.
