Preview: Tammeka II Hosts Tartu Kalev in Esiliiga B Clash

TARTU, Estonia (Interstat) — A mid-table clash with implications for the lower half of the standings is set for Wednesday as Tammeka II hosts local rival Tartu Kalev in Estonian second-division football.

The match, a Week 22 fixture in the Esiliiga B, will kick off at Tartu Sepa tänava staadion.

The visiting Tartu Kalev side enters the contest looking to rebound from a heavy defeat to end its previous campaign. In its most recent competitive match on Nov. 9, 2025, Tartu Kalev was routed 6-1 at home by Trans. Its last victory came earlier that season, a 1-0 home win over Jager on Aug. 17, 2025.

Tammeka II also concluded its previous season with a loss, falling 3-0 at home to Tallinna Kalev II on Nov. 1, 2025.

Despite the recent form of both clubs, statistical models suggest a closely contested derby. The Interstat game simulator projects a 2-2 draw. However, the same outlet’s ELO rating system gives Tammeka II a 60.40 percent probability of securing a victory.

The matchup is one of several as the Esiliiga B, Estonia’s third-tier league, resumes its season. Both teams will aim to start the new year with a positive result to build momentum for the remainder of the schedule.

The game will be played at the Sepa tänava staadion, a venue familiar to both clubs located in the city of Tartu.
