Pärnu v Tallinna Kalev

Both sides come into this Meistriliiga relegation 6 pointer with everything to play for, a win for Pärnu could see them jump off the bottom of the table and into the relegation play off place in 9^th. A win for Kalev would see them go 10 points clear of Pärnu and potentially 8 points clear of Legion depending on what they do in their game.

Pärnu haven’t won in 12 games and lost their last 6 with relegation seeming more likely as the weeks pass by, this game is crucial if they are to stand a chance in surviving this season.

Kalev’s form isn’t much better, losing 6 of out of 7 games and conceding an incredible 18 goals in their last 3 games.

Despite both being in horrible form, they have some players that have stepped up during this time, with the absence of Kevin Kauber, the wonderfully named Ronaldo Tiismaa has stepped up for Pärnu, scoring 5 goals. 

For Kalev, Tristan Teevali has been a wonderful addition in the midfield, already scoring 2 goals in 4 games. Ioan Yakovlev leads the league in assists with 11, with the Kalev man being a very threatening player when on the attack.

It’s difficult to see this game not involving goals, with 143 goals being conceded between them, and each side have managed to score in 15 out of the 24 games played this season. These 2 have only ever played each other twice with each collecting 1 win each, with relegation a real possibility Pärnu may be more inclined to be more attacking, but Kalev can easily be dragged into a more serious relegation battle, so both sides will be gunning for the 3 points.
