Tallinna Kalev are welcoming Tulevik for another important game after their 0-2 result against 6th-placed Trans.
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.
Relegation threatens Tallinna Kalev who should definitely be looking for some points here. Tulevik have already sealed their fate; they will finish in 7th place no matter what happens.
