Maardu and Nõmme United are both riding high in the Esiliiga with their 1st and 2nd positions respectively. Expect a great game!
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Maardu form and stats
8-1-0 is the performance here at Maardu linnastaadion so far in the Esiliiga, giving Maardu a total of 25 from their 9 games here. Outstanding results! Hopes of three in a row are alive for Maardu after consecutive victories at their own ground.
Maardu's previous game was a Esiliiga match also played at home, ending 5-1 versus Pärnu (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. In the game before, an away victory in the Estonian Cup match versus Viimsi (after extra-time) with a 2-1 scoreline.
As mentioned above, Maardu "killed" Pärnu in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
There will be little rest for Maardu after this match as they are travelling to Vändra for a Esiliiga game in only three days.
