Lincoln Red Imps vs Dinamo Minsk Prediction and Betting Tips | August 15th 2024
Lincoln Red Imps and Dinamo Minsk lock horns at the Europa Sports Complex in the second leg of their Europa League third qualifying round clash on Thursday. Following a 2-0 loss in the first leg, Javier Munoz’s men will be looking to overturn their two-goal deficit and make a remarkable comeback in front of their home supporters.
Aleksei Gavrilovich and Pedro Igor scored in either half to fire Dinamo Minsk to a 2-0 victory over Lincoln Red Imps in the first leg at the Mezőkövesdi Városi Stadion last Thursday.
Munoz’s men have now lost three games on the bounce, a run which saw them crash out of the Champions League qualifiers courtesy of a humiliating 7-0 aggregate defeat against Qarabag.
This dire run of results has been due to their struggles at both ends of the pitch as the Gibraltar-based club have conceded 10 goals and failed to find the back of the net in their last four matches across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Dinamo Minsk coach Vadim Skripchenko will be delighted with his side’s display in the first leg, having crashed out of the Champions League qualifiers back in July.
The Belarusian outfit kicked off their quest for Champions League football with a 1-0 aggregate victory over Pyunik in the first round before suffering a 2-1 loss over two legs against Ludogorets in the second round.
With last week’s victory over Lincoln Red Imps, Dinamo Minsk have now gone unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 matches across all competitions since May and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling on Thursday.
