Isloch Minsk have made an impressive start to the new Belarus Premier League season. They are fourth in the table and look to make it three wins out of three when hosting FC Slutsk who are sixth. Isloch finished fifth in the Belarus Premier League last season but 28 points behind champions Dinamo Brest.  This season began with a 1-0 home win over Neman Grodno. Despite their opponents being down to ten men for the last 47 minutes of the game, Isloch didn't get their winner until the 88th minute. A second win of the season came when beating newly promoted Smolevichi 1-0, this time getting the winner after just nine minutes. Both of those games were played at home and another one comes this weekend. They have gone five games without conceding a goal and will look to continue their unbeaten run this weekend. 

FC Slutsk survived a relegation battle last season. They ended in 11th place, four points above the bottom three, after winning their last two league fixtures. Their first league fixture of the new season saw them go 1-0 down at home to Slavia to a 30th minute penalty. They made a great comeback though and eventually won 3-1, two of their goals being penalties. FC Slutsk didn't build on that win though and lost their second game 1-0 at home to defending champions Dinamo Brest. Their away form isn't great with four losses in their last five on the road. A bet on a home win for Isloch is the suggested wager.
