In the last 6 meetings, Liepāja have lost 4 times, and 3 of those were heavy defeats (0-4, 3-0, 4-0). But in the most recent home meeting, they won 2-1 — this time Liepāja are in fluctuating form, winning 2 in a row before losing 0-1 in the last match, while Riga are unbeaten in 5 consecutive matches but have drawn 3 of them (1-1, 0-0, 3-3). The key point to watch after kickoff is Liepāja's defense, which concedes the most goals in the 1-15 minute period, up to 20% of all goals conceded. If they survive the first 15 minutes, the game should be more competitive and the total goals may not exceed 3 as many expect.
