Rīgas FS form and stats

3 victories, 0 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Rīgas FS, who have the most clean sheets (5) in Virsliga, have to build on here in the Virsliga. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Rīgas has won five games in a row. The Metta / LU match was the last time out without a victory.

Rīgas are returning here after visiting Liepaja in a Virsliga game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. E. Stuglis and Emerson Deocleciano scored the goal(s). The goalie V. Černiauskas was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 0.0 out of ten. Černiauskas . World class coaching! That was the thoughts of V. Morozs when E. Stuglis scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 61st minute.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Ventspils in a game that was won 1-0.

Rīgas FS are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here in their league games, having scored an impressive 11 goals in 4 matches. 5 goals have been conceded.
