Liepāja form and stats

Liepāja's results here at Stadions Daugava in the Virsliga have been very modest with 2 victories, 2 draws and 4 defeats. It's trouble wherever Liepāja are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Liepāja's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Valmiera / BSS (placed 3rd).

Heartbreak before that as Liepāja lost 1-2 at FS Jelgava's place.

Goals are plentiful in this club's league rounds, with 5 in a row seeing three or more goals (over 2.5).

The manager Pertia will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to FC Daugavpils / Progress in only four days.

Liepāja have scored {7 league goals} here from 8 matches, not a lot.

Tukums form and stats

Tukums have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Virsliga, after 1-2-5 (8 played). Tukums seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Meļķis scored in Tukums's previous match, the home game against Super Nova that ended 3-2. Hooray; their first win in the league after six games not winning.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Riga wasn't a success with a 1-5 loss.

Goal-happy betting people should observe that 8 of this team's 10 latest league matches have ended with three goals or more.

Tukums has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 14 goals from 8 games. The Tukums manager Mihadjuks has some worries about the defense as 20 goals have been conceded in these travels. It's worth mentioning that 11 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
