Rīgas FS host FS Jelgava in the Virsliga tonight, with the home side having managed only a 1-1 draw in their last match, while FS Jelgava have just lost 0-1. This is therefore a meeting of two teams both stalling at the same time, yet their situations in the table are worlds apart. Rīgas FS still lead at the top with 74 points from 30 matches, winning 23 of them and scoring at an average of more than 2 goals per game, while FS Jelgava sit 7th with 32 points from 31 matches. The visitors' attack has not produced many goals all season, and in their last five matches they have scored only in the two they won. This game is likely to see the home side dominate possession and push forward against a visiting team that drops deep to defend. FS Jelgava will probably focus on soaking up pressure and waiting to counter, which makes the pattern of play likely to be one where goals do not flow easily, even though the home side are clearly favoured.
