Daugavpils is one of the typical mid-table teams in the Latvian championship, and this round presents one of its toughest challenges – a visit to the league leader Rīgas. Rīgas is having an impressive season and already has 17 wins in its 20 championship matches so far. Combined with its home advantage, Rīgas fully deserves to enter the match as a clear favorite.
Daugavpils is on a good runDespite the huge difference in class, Daugavpils should not be underestimated. The team has gone five consecutive championship matches without a defeat, although four of them ended in draws. Furthermore, in its last three matches, the team has not conceded a single goal. However, Rīgas continues to win convincingly and often achieves overwhelming victories. Against this opponent, the leader is on a streak of 20 consecutive matches without a loss, with each of the last 11 encounters between them being won by Rīgas.
Prediction: Daugavpils +2.5 handicapI expect Rīgas to win again, but Daugavpils' good form and solid defensive play lately lead me to believe that the visitors will not suffer a heavy defeat.
