Prediction

Aril Limassol are the downright favourites to win this game over BATE Borisov. With a four-goal cushion, they can rotate their side and give an opportunity to those youngsters who do not get a chance to play usually. Borisov, on the other hand, have scored just seven goals in their last five matches, which means that their chances of resurrection in this game are minimal. Limassol should win this match comfortably.
