Rīgas FS perform at a high level so far being 1st in the table. Valmiera / BSS can look both up and down from their 4th position.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Virsliga. That game was also an away game, at Ventspils. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary. That game was a home fixture for Valmiera / BSS, against Ventspils. But now it's all about beating Rīgas FS!
