It's early days in the Virsliga and both Spartaks Jūrmala and Tukums are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
This pitch has artifical turf, which is not Tukums's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on artifical turf Tukums have performed like this: Played 25 matches resulting in 15 wins, 1 draw and 9 defeats with the goal stats 57-38 (scored/conceded).
Spartaks Jūrmala form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Spartaks Jūrmala's two home games in the Virsliga so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Slokas Stadionā.
Spartaks drew their last game, 2-2 away at Valmiera / BSS (placed 9th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Ventspils (1-3).
A disappointing finish for Spartaks in their match versus Valmiera / BSS as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.
Spartaks Jūrmala has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 4 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Tukums form and stats
No Virsliga points yet away for Tukums, from their first 2 matches. It's looking increasingly bleak for Tukums who now has to deal with a five game losing streak. Grobina was the last time a defeat was avoided. Tukums seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
The manager J. Kalns was unhappy after their last game, a Virsliga match played at their home ground Tukuma pilsētas stadions. Tukums suffered a 1-3 loss to Metta / LU (placed 8th). A 0-2 defeat away at Valmiera / BSS before that.
As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Tukums has managed 0 goals and let in 5 from 2 matches.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last eight meetings between these two teams are: five wins for Spartaks, three draws and zero wins for Tukums. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: three games.Top Goalscorers
