Pyunik vs Dinamo Minsk predictions: Another low-scoring affair awaits
Key stats
- Pyunik have not conceded a goal in their last four games in all competitions.
- Dinamo Minsk have not conceded a goal in their last three games across the board.
- Both teams are without a loss in their last 10 matches, going back to last season.
Correct score prediction: Pyunik 0-0 Dinamo Minsk
After the first leg in which we didn't saw a lot of action, we can see the second leg following the same pattern, especially with both teams knowing that conceding a goal would likely mean elimination based on how well these two teams defend. So, a repeat of the final score from the first leg sounds like a reasonable bet.

Pyunik preview: Hoping to take the advantage of playing at home
While Dinamo Minsk are certainly the more reputable club than Pyunik, the reigning champions of Armenia are a solid team and they've entered the matchup in great form, after six wins in a row. Granted, those wins all came at the end of last season's Armenian championship, but Pyunik have proven in the first leg that they can hang with Dinamo and their fans have reasons to feel optimistic for the rematch.
When it comes to team news, only Luka Juricic is on Pyunik's injury list at this time.
Predicted lineup: Avagyan (GK), De Souza, Vakulenko, Bratkov, Juninho, Cociuc, Otubanjo, Udo, Davidyan, Paredes & Carabello

Dinamo Minsk preview: Can they do better in the second leg?
After failing to exploit the home-court advantage in the first match against Pyunik, the champions of Belarus will now have to find a way to overcome their rivals away from home or they might be out of Champions League qualifiers in the first stage. Dinamo are in good form though, with six wins in a row in their ongoing domestic championship before the match with Pyunik.
Meanwhile, Pavel Sedko missed the first game through injury and will likely miss the second leg as well.
Predicted lineup: Lapoukhov (GK), Pigas, Palitsevich, Hawrylovich, Oliveira, Shkolik, Selyava, Demchenko, Podstrelov, Melnichenko & Zherdev

Player to watch: Agdon Santos Menezes
As one of the key signings for Pyunik this summer, expectations are high from Agdon and while he failed to deliver in the first leg against Dinamo Minks, he is the player to watch in the rematch.
