The gift that keeps on giving is back with another wonderful weekend of Belarusian Premier League matches.

Let's make the most of it with a few more winners.

Minsk (+275) at Slavia (+105), Draw (+225)

Overs are a rarity in this league, but hear me out. Minsk have been leaky at the back and are yet to keep a clean sheet on the campaign. They've hit a dry patch in attack after scoring six goals over the first two weeks, but they should be able to end their slump against Slavia. The hosts have kept just one clean sheet this season, and there have been at least three goals scored in four of their five matches.

These sides have combined for a staggering 19 goals in their last three league meetings in Mozyr, and I expect more fireworks in Saturday's contest.

Pick: Over 2, 2.5 (+100)

BATE (-175) at Gorodeya (+500), Draw (+275)

After losing their first two matches of the season, Gorodeya have responded by ripping off three successive 1-0 victories. BATE, meanwhile, can't quite hit their stride. They looked to be turning a corner with back-to-back wins after opening the season with successive losses, but they stalled in a goalless draw at home to Torpedo BelAz last weekend.

Gorodeya are a very disciplined side and afford opponents few opportunities. They should make life incredibly difficult for BATE, who are winless in four trips to Haradzeya.

Pick: Gorodeya +1 (-120)

Rukh Brest (+333) at Torpedo BelAZ (-105), Draw (+210)

This clash features two of the season's better stories thus far. Torpedo find themselves in a share of top spot in the table, while Premier League debutantes Rukh Brest haven't looked out of their depth at all; they're far off the bottom after claiming seven points through five matches.

Both sides have enjoyed success thanks to some incredibly stingy defending. Torpedo have kept four clean sheets through five matches, while Rukh Brest have scored twice and conceded twice in five games. This has 0-0 or 1-0 written all over it.

Pick: Under 2 (-125)
