National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Trans or Tartu Welco that keep their silverware dream alive.
Tartu Welco could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Esiliiga game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Paide U21, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Tartu Welco.
Trans form and stats
Last season their Estonian Cup adventure ended in the semi-finals.5 victories, 3 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Trans have to build on here at Kalevi Staadion in the Meistriliiga. 1W-2D-0L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Estonian Cup for Trans.
In their previous game, the manager I. Pyvin led his Trans to a defeat in the Meistriliiga match away at Tammeka. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Kalevi Staadion.
A Meistriliiga defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Paide.The Trans fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 13 matches. 18 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Tartu Welco form and stats
Last season their Estonian Cup adventure ended in the 16th finals.Tartu Welco have only collected 4 points from their away games in the Esiliiga, after 1-1-11 (13 played). It's all red in the travel logs of Tartu, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team.
Tartu Welco lost away at Paide U21 (0-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Tartu lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
Preceding that, the 2-3 home loss versus Nomme United.The attacking power of Tartu when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 13 league matches away. Tartu can't defend away. 47 goals have been scored by the opposition in 13 matches, an average of more than three per game.
