Riga and Grobiņa have met many times this season, and Riga have won every league meeting comfortably, except for the 1-1 draw with Grobiņa late last year. This time Grobiņa play at home, but their recent form suggests the hosts barely see any of the ball. Grobiņa just won 3-2 in their latest match, but across the season they have scored only 25 goals in 33 games, while Riga have scored 90 and conceded just 31. Riga average 60.4% possession over their last 10 games, compared with 40.8% for the hosts. The two teams therefore arrive in clearly different shape. The game is likely to play out with Riga controlling the ball and pushing high, while Grobiņa sit deep and wait to counter. What to watch after kick-off is how long Grobiņa can cope with Riga's sustained attacking waves. If Riga take an early lead, the game could open up, but if the hosts hold firm, it will settle into a slower rhythm.
