Get ready for a show! Today's starring heroes are Nõmme Kalju and Levadia, a win is the prize and 1 1/2 hours the length.
- Nõmme Kalju have the most dropped points from leading position (7) in Meistriliiga
- Levadia have the fewest conceded goals (4) in Meistriliiga
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Levadia have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 4-1-1 (win-draw-loss) from six matches.
This is a match between teams from the same area, a local derby. The community is buzzing.
It's no vacation for neither Nõmme nor Levadia as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
