Dinamo Minsk and Ludogorets return to action in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers when they lock horns at the Mezokovesdi Varosi Stadion on Wednesday. Having suffered a 1-0 defeat in last week’s reverse leg, Vadim Skripchenko’s men will be looking to turn the tie on its head and reach the second qualifying round.
Dinamo Minsk find themselves on the cusp of another exit from the Champions League qualifiers against Ludogorets as they fell to a 1-0 loss when the two sides met in the first leg of their first-round clash last Wednesday.
Skripchenko’s side have now lost four of their most recent five games across all competitions, a run which has seen them drop into fourth place in the Belarus top flight table.
