BATE Borisov has probably known every football fan since the Champions and Europa League 2019/20, because they showed a lot in it, but did not go beyond the Europa League qualification after they already failed in the CHL qualification. In 2020, the Belarusian champion of 2018 already played many games and is now close to his possible 1st title, because they will contest the final of the Belarus Cup on May 24, 2020 against Dynamo Brest. The runners-up from 2019 won the quarterfinals 5-3 against Dinamo Minsk and the semi-finals 2-1 against Slavia. In Vysshaya Liga they have won 4 out of 7 games so far, were able to make 1 draw and only had to surrender twice. They finished 11 times and only allowed 6 points.
