Tukums form and stats

Three Virsliga home games done for Tukums, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Tukums to get some points in this home game.

Tukums played out an unexpected defeat 1-4 against Liepāja in their previous match, also a home game.

Heartbreak before that as Tukums lost 0-3 at Valmiera / BSS's place.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on Liepāja to win. Let's see if Tukums are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: nine games found revealing zero Tukums wins, two draws and seven defeats.

This has been a stadium of sighs so far as Tukums have let the opposition score 16 times, an average of more than three per game.
