Competition: Latvia Virsliga
Date: Sat 15.June
Match begins: 16:00 (UTC)
Venue: Stadions Daugava mākslīgas laukums

The visiting Riga side should be favourites in this visit to Liepāja, as the away team holds a 12 point advantage from their 15 league games this season.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Riga have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 10-3-8 (win-draw-loss) from 21 matches.
