Venue: Maardu linnastaadion (1500 seats)

Struggling Maardu will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Flora in the upcoming league round. It’s 10th vs 1st and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

Maardu and Flora should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Maardu have had a bad season and will be relegated from Meistriliiga. Flora have already won the Meistriliiga. Congratulations! It will be interesting to see if this affects performances here at the final stages.
