Competition: Estonia Meistriliiga
Date: Tue 18.June
Match begins: 16:00 (UTC)
Venue: Viljandi linnastaadion (2506 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 7th and the visitors in 8th place.

It's no vacation for neither Tulevik nor Maardu 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.

Tulevik form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories so far this season. Tulevik have only managed 0 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses so far from their games here at Viljandi linnastaadion.

Tulevik's previous game was a Meistriliiga match also played at home, ending 2-0 versus Maardu. The home side are looking to build on that result. Prior to that, an away loss at Paide.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Tulevik handle that role? We have found two games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W1-D0-L1.

The Tulevik fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Tulevik having conceded 18 goals here at Viljandi linnastaadion so far.

Maardu form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Maardu, who have the fewest points (1) away in Meistriliiga, so far with only 1 point returning home. The records show 0-1-7 (win-draw-lose). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in eleven away games in a row. It's a growing despair in Maardu as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Maardu, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Tulevik. A loss against Flora was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Maardu are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 0 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. From a total of one match.

Maardu are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels and have only managed 3 goals from 8 away games. Maardu can't defend away. 32 goals have been scored by the opposition in 8 matches, an average of more than three per game. You might want to look at the total goal statistics, which can be found on the Statistics tab above.
