Dinamo Minsk vs Lincoln Red Imps Match Analysis & Prediction
08/08/2024 9:45 pm
In the first leg of the third Europa League qualifying round, Dinamo Minsk will play host to Lincoln Red Imps at Varosi Stadion on Thursday night.
The hosts are second in Belarus’ top flight with 35 points after 15 matches, while the visitors finished first in their Championship playoff group with 65 points in Gibraltar’s top flight.
Dinamo Minsk were eliminated from the Champions League qualifiers after losing 2-1 on aggregate to Ludogorets Razgrad in the second round, and have therefore dropped down into the Europa League qualifiers.
Despite securing a 1-0 victory in the second leg on July 31, their 2-0 defeat in the first leg on July 24 proved too big an obstacle to overcome.
Dinamo Minsk’s home record is strong, and their 3-2 domestic-cup tie defeat to BATE on March 10 is their only loss in their last 17 matches at Varosi Stadion.
However, Vadim Skripchenko’s side still managed to progress through that cup tie as they had won the first leg 1-0, and went on to beat BATE on penalties.
Opponents Lincoln Red Imps were also eliminated from the Champions League qualifiers after losing 7-0 on aggregate to Qarabag FK in the second round.
Lincoln Red Imps ever won just two matches in the Europa League, both of which were in August 2020, and have failed to win any of their nine other games in the competition.
The visitors will head into Thursday’s contest having lost their last three matches, but prior to that they won 17 of their previous 18 games.
It should be worth noting that Lincoln Red Imps have never won an away game in the Europa League and have never reached the group stage of the competition.
