19:00 Dinamo Minsk – PAOK Thessaloniki

Dinamo simply collapsed in November, as the hosts lost three of their four games since the beginning of the month, with one draw in the visit in Novopolotsk last Saturday.

The race for the title in the Belarusian league was lost, as well as the chances for further progress in this tournament, where the hosts are on the last spot in Group K, with only one point after four games.

The motivation of the players is obviously under question under these circumstances and I doubt, that the cold weather in Belarus and the home ground could be considered as a substantial advantage for the home team, especially against team with apparently bigger potential like PAOK.

This match is actually much more important for the Greek team, as only three points in Belarus will left chances for PAOK to finish on 2nd position in Group K.

PAOK just destroy Dinamo in the first match between these two teams in September (6-1) and even though the current situation is slightly different, I expect, that the guests will manage to win three points from this game.

Dinamo will be without Umaru Bangura (M) and Nikita Korzun (M), while the guests will have to deal without Robert Mak (M) and Hedwiges Maduro (M).
