Valmiera / BSS have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Virsliga were 5 victories, 6 draws and 5 defeats from 16 fixtures.

The attacking players of Valmiera have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 246 minutes.

Valmiera / BSS lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.

A new game in only four days for Valmiera / BSS, the Virsliga home match versus Tukums. Busy days.
