Zhodino are third in the Belarus Premier League, only behind the top two (FC Slutsk and Vibetsk on goal difference). They look to get a fourth league win of the season when hosting ninth placed Rukh Brest. Zhodino won their first two league games of the season, beating Shakhtyor and Belshina without conceding a goal. That run ended when they lost 2-0 away at Dinamo Minsk. They got back into winning ways though with a 2-0 win over Energetik that took them to the top of the table. That position was lost when they could only draw 0-0 at BATE Borisov. Their five league games have only seen six goals scored with only two conceded. Home form has seen them win three of their last four, conceding in just one of them.

Rukh Brest are a newly-promoted side and doing the best of the three teams that won promotion. The others are the current bottom two in the table but Brest have managed seven points from their five games. Their season began well with a 1-0 win at Dinamo Minsk but then they suffered defeats by Energetik and BATE Borisov. Both were tough opponents of course and Brest did well to only lose each game 1-0. A goalless draw at Slavia Mozyr followed but that made it three games without a goal. Their second league win came when beating FC Minsk with their winner coming three minutes into the second half. Their three away games have only seen two goals scored with only four scored in five matches. Zhodino can get the home win but it could well be a low-scoring match, so go for a home win with under 2.5 goals in the game.
