Competition: Estonia Meistriliiga
Competition: Wed 02.March
Match begins: 16:00 (UTC)
Venue: Sportland Arena (500 seats)

It's a brand new Meistriliiga campaign and Nõmme Kalju are impatient to get started here at Sportland Arena. Kuressaare are coming to town and this looks to be a spellbinding season premiere.

This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Kuressaare's everyday surface at their own pitch. When playing on artifical turf Kuressaare have performed like this: Played four matches resulting in 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats with the goal difference 5-10 (scored/conceded).

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
