Only a win will satisfy the home supporters in this Sportland Arena clash with Tallinna Kalev, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Meistriliiga table.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Tallinna Kalev have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 8-5-11 (win-draw-loss) from 24 matches. These teams are so close in distance that this match is special, a derby with local pride the main prize.
