The Virsliga league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Valmiera / BSS and Spartaks Jūrmala are placed 8th and 7th respectively.

It's no vacation for neither Valmiera nor Spartaks Jūrmala as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
