It's been rough for Elva so far, and I guess you could say the same about Pärnu. The strugglers have a chance for some much needed points here.
- Elva have the most conceded goals (23) at home in Esiliiga A
- Pärnu have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
These are hectic days for the hosts, as they had a match only four days ago in the Estonian Cup. Thankfully the previous game, versus Viimsi, was also a home game here at Elva linnastaadion. The away team is better rested.
