Riga FC have been one of the best Latvian teams in the last few years. However, their last league title came in 2020. Viktors Morozs' team's biggest goal for the season is to win the Virsliga trophy, but after 22 rounds, Riga FC are seven points behind the league leader, RFS. Morosz's team is in impressive form, with eight wins in the last ten matches. In the previous game, they won 3-0 on the road in the cup against JFK Ventspils. The team from the second level of Latvian football was no match for the dominant Riga FC.
Jelgava is facing big problems this season as they have collected only 16 points so far, so only Liepaja, with one point less, is worse than them. Valerijs Redjko's team is in a big crisis as they won only one of the last eight matches. In the previous game, they lost 4-2 at home in the cup against Liepaja. Jelgava have big problems defensively and now they will travel to Riga to meet one of the best Latvian teams.
Riga FC vs Jelgava pick: Over 3.5 goals
Riga FC scored eight goals in the last three matches. On the other hand, Jelgava have big problems in defense as they allowed 11 goals in the previous two games. Over 3.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Jelgava team news
Jelgava are also trying to improve its team through transfers too. This summer, they signed Vladyslav Veremeev, Ede Oloko, and Yasuhiro Hanada. Also, Antons Dresmanis came back from retirement about two weeks ago and joined his old club. However, all those players are usually not so good, and they will unlikely change Jelgava's fortune.
