After three games we know a little more about the qualities of Tulevik and Nõmme Kalju in this fresh Meistriliiga season. Read our match preview!
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.
