11 - 4 - 3 with 34-18. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Rīgas FS when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Rīgas FS play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.

Rīgas FS have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Rīgas FS could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Virsliga game only four sleeps ago.

Fiorentina form and stats

Fiorentina must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three Serie A games here at Stadio Artemio Franchi.

The spoils were shared in Fiorentina's previous game, also at home. Visiting Juventus travelled back with a draw after a 1-1 scoreline. Jović felt an ounce or two of guilt after the draw against Juventus as the player was unable to convert a penalty kick in the 44th minute. The striker Kouamé outperformed all the other footballers in that fixture and was awarded a match rating of 8.0 out of 10. Kouamé scored one goal, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

Heartbreak before that as Fiorentina lost 0-1 at Udinese's place.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Fiorentina as they are travelling to their away game against Bologna in the Serie A. That match is three days after this one.

The Fiorentina fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches.

Rīgas FS form and stats

They also participated in Europa Conference League last season. This ended in the 3rd qualifying round, when Gent drew the shortest straw.

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 10 wins, 1 draw and only 2 losses in the Virsliga. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Europa Conference League stats, they have 1 win, 3 draws and 0 losses both home and away.

Rīgas FS's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Riga that finished 1-1.

A home win as predicted against Grobina ahead of that, in the Latvian Cup. Rīgas are huge outsiders in this game. Running a check in our games database we found 5 matches where they were as big outsiders as an away team. Results were 4 wins, 1 draw and 0 defeats. Of the defeats, 0 games were lost by at least two goals margin.

A quick return to home after this game, as Rīgas FS are hosting Spartaks Jurmala in the Virsliga only four days away.

Rīgas FS are a potent attacking force on the road with their 34 goals in 13 league games. Rīgas have conceded 14 goals in these away matches.
