Pärnu form and stats
2 victories, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That’s what Pärnu have to build on here at Pärnu Rannastaadion in the Esiliiga A. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Pärnu, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.
It's back home for Pärnu, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Levadia II away with the result 2-1. S. Simanis and O. Vaabel found the net in that victory.
Preceding that match was the home game against Nomme United that was lost 0-1.The Pärnu fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 5 matches. Pärnu's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 6 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Maardu form and stats
The away performances of Maardu have been very solid so far with 5 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats in the Esiliiga A. The question is whether this happy travelling can continue. Maardu have been producing wins at home as well, producing a total of five victories in a row regardless of arena.
Maardu are travelling after their nice 5-1 home win in the Esiliiga A against Nomme United (placed 5th). As mentioned above, Maardu was the only team on the pitch versus Nomme United in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Tartu Welco at their stadium, the result 4-0.The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Maardu alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (23 from 6 played). Maardu are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 3 away goals have been conceded so far.
