Riga and Super Nova meet in the Virsliga, where Riga are still in the hunt at the top of the table, while Super Nova need points to close out the season well. Both played recently, and Riga's last match was a 1-1 draw in Europe, while Super Nova have just lost 0-4 in the league. Riga are unbeaten in 5 straight matches, but many of their wins have been by a single goal, and they scored 2 goals in their most recent friendly. Super Nova's form has been up and down, with 2 wins and 3 losses in their last 5, and their defence has been leaking goals, especially in the first half where they concede often. This game is likely to see Riga dominate possession and attack throughout, while Super Nova sit deep and try to counter. The first half may not open up much, as Riga tend to build gradually and Super Nova focus on staying compact before the break. After that, the home side should step up and score, but the game is unlikely to turn into a high-scoring thriller, as Super Nova will prioritise defending and waiting for counter-attacking chances.
