Season ticket holders at Slokas Stadionā haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Spartaks Jūrmala languishing in the 7th position so far. The guesting Jelgava will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
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!
Spartaks Jūrmala form and stats
Spartaks Jūrmala have collected 4 points from their Virsliga home games so far after 1-1-1.
Spartaks drew their last game, also a home match. Tukums (placed 10th) was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Preceding that game was the away draw at Valmiera / BSS that finished 2-2.
N. Williams was able to secure the draw 1-1 in the game against Tukums after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
The manager A. Eremenko 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.
Spartaks are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. Spartaks Jūrmala have conceded 5 from these games.
Jelgava form and stats
Things could have gone better for Jelgava in their Virsliga away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. Jelgava seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Jelgava's previous game was their home loss versus Valmiera / BSS (1-2). That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Ventspils.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Liepaja in just four days.
The attacking power of Jelgava when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. As opposed to that, Jelgava have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.
