Rīga FC vs Auda
RIGA, Latvia (Interstat) — A clash of Latvian Cup unbeatens is set for Wednesday as Rīga FC hosts Auda, though the teams enter in vastly different form.
Rīga FC, the home side, boasts a dominant 29-1-7 record across all competitions this season. In the Cup, they are a perfect 3-0-0. Their most recent result was a 0-0 draw with FK Tukums-2000 on Oct. 24, snapping a prolific scoring run but extending their unbeaten streak.
Auda, the visitors, are also flawless in the Cup with a 5-0-0 record. However, their overall season of 29-26-6 reveals inconsistency. They are reeling from a 3-2 loss to Metta/LU on Sunday, their third defeat in their last four matches across all tournaments.
Recent history heavily favors the hosts. In their last meeting on Sept. 13, Rīga FC throttled Auda 6-0. The two other matchups this year were 3-1 victories for Rīga FC.
According to Interstat’s game simulator, Rīga FC is projected to win 2-0. The winner will advance in the knockout tournament.
