The Belarusian national team, having a rather modest selection of players, is trying to score at least one point in every match. Spanish coach Carlos Alos Ferrer taught the team to play in defense, which is already giving results. In the last four official matches, the national team has not conceded a single goal.
Northern Ireland is staffed with players from English clubs. Most of them play in the Championship. So the guests are capable of playing power soccer. Surprisingly, but so far Michael O’Neill’s wards have only three points. After the confident victory over Luxembourg, they were defeated by Bulgaria with the score – 0:1.
The Belarus national team is scoring an average of only 0.8 goals per game. Northern Ireland is different on away – 1.57 goals per game. Both teams try to play reliably in defense and give opponents as little space on the soccer field as possible. In this case, most likely, the outcome of the duel will be decided by one goal scored.
