Form & Streaks

Burkina Faso has secured 6 wins in their last 10 matches across all competitions

Belarus has conceded nearly three times as many shots on target (8.36) as Burkina Faso (2.81) in recent form

Tactical Overview

Despite Belarus winning their last three matches across all competitions, their underlying metrics reveal significant defensive vulnerabilities, trending at 2.60 goals conceded per game in recent form. They often struggle to maintain control, averaging just 33% possession in recent matches, which plays directly into the hands of Burkina Faso. The visitors are comfortable on the ball, maintaining an 84% pass accuracy on a recent-form basis, and will look to Ismahila Ouédraogo to dictate the tempo from midfield. Belarus will likely adopt a low block, relying on goalkeeper Fedor Lapoukhov, who has been busy with a recent-form average of 5.67 saves per game. Burkina Faso should dominate the territory, but their recent 0-3 loss to Russia shows they can be clinical or frustrated depending on how well Edmond Tapsoba organizes the backline against the counter-attacking threat of Valeriy Gromyko.
