Kuressaare form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Meistriliiga this season. Kuressaare have only managed 3 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses from their games here at Kuressaare linnastaadion. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Kuressaare after consecutive victories at their own ground.

Kuressaare are returning here after visiting Nomme Kalju in a Meistriliiga game and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. M. Männilaan, A. Jermatšenko and M. Pajunurm scored the goal(s).

Prior to that, an away loss at Paide.

Vaprus form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Vaprus so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-9 (win-draw-lose). A depressing five defeats in a row for Vaprus in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Tammeka.

Vaprus have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 304 minutes ago. A. Krutogolov was the goal scorer.

Vaprus might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Flora proved too strong as Vaprus slumped to a 0-6 defeat in front of their own fans at Pärnu Rannastaadion. Vaprus lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.

A 0-3 defeat away at Trans before that.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Vaprus as they have only managed to score 9 times from 12 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Vaprus are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 9 goals in these matches.
