Struggling Trans will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Paide in the upcoming league round. It’s 10th vs 2nd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
Trans have less rest than Paide in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Estonian Cup game only four days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Flora.
Trans form and stats
The story so far in the Meistriliiga for Trans at their home stadium (Kreenholmi Staadion) is 0 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. All in all it has been a very rough period for Trans who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Nomme Kalju, 123 days ago.
The fans are hoping that Trans will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Estonian Cup game against Flora (placed 1st). Heartbreak before that as Trans lost 1-3 at Flora's place.
There will be little rest for Trans after this match as they are travelling to Tulevik for a Meistriliiga game in only three days.

K. Piht, S. Luts and E. Tur scored in Paide's previous match, the home game against Tammeka that ended 3-0. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Legion.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Paide manager V. Zahovaiko as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Flora.
The Paide manager V. Zahovaiko has seen his team go crazy on the road this season, having scored 12 goals in 4 league matches away. As opposed to that, Paide have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.
