Metta / LU and Beitar / Riga Mariners meet at a time when their form is quite different. The hosts just crushed their opponents 7-0 in their last match, while the visitors won 4-2 but had to work harder to close out the game, even though they had just been thrashed 1-4 before that. Metta / LU are the highest-scoring team in the league right now, having scored 89 goals in 21 matches this season, and their home attack remains consistently dangerous. Beitar / Riga Mariners do not just come to defend, but their defense still shows weaknesses, as seen in the match they lost heavily, and visiting the top team that is full of confidence like this is a tough task. The game is likely to start with the hosts pressing immediately, and if Metta / LU score early, the game will probably flow in one direction, because the difference in attacking quality and confidence is clear. The first half and second half should look different, with the hosts likely controlling more of the game in the first half and having a chance to take the lead before the break.
