The victory over Zapadnaya Granica by Inter Tallinn has become a major surprise last week. It equally helped all other 4 favorites (Ahtme Wagon FC Liikuri, GZ and Green Way) to increase their chances to win the championship. However, Zapadnaya Granica expect difficult matches ahead against equal ranking teams.

This week we are facing more interesting matches, results and events ahead. For example, the match between Inter Tallinn and FC Liikuri, which will be held on Friday, February 18th, in Sparta, is a kind of a revenge match, as in the first round FC Liikuri suffered a crushing defeat of 1:9.

The second match of Friday is between Zapadnaya Granica and Doker. In the first round the match was held in more favorable pitch for both teams, where Zapadnaya Granica managed to win over Doker 6:5.

Significant motivator for Doker can be bonus ranking points for winning a team whose rating is higher by more than 30%. In case of winning the team will earn a bonus of 100 points in the case of a tie result, 50 points.

Saturday's games will be held in Loo on February 19th with the first match between C.A.V. and FC Milvi. In the first round, C.A.V. unexpectedly lost to FC Milvi 4:5 and now C.A.V. will try to pay the debt.

Also on Saturday, we expect another favorite to arrive for the matches. Ahtme Vagon usually get 6 points after two matches in a day. Will it happen next Saturday? Whether or not the first rival team Bisboccioni to impose their game and re-tie? One advantage for Bisboccioni is that Sergei Klimotskin will miss the match due to 3 yellow cards accumulation.

Successful game against Ahtme Vagon showed by Bisboccioni in the first round match, where Bisboccioni were on the verge of victory and finished the match 2:2, influenced to create a bonus system awarding additional bonus points when weaker rating team win or tie against higher ranking team
.
The second contender of Ahtme Vagon on Saturday will be the team that leads the ranking list Green Way.

We must not forget about another upcoming high-power confrontation lasting for several years between teams of the GZ and Kalev Vesi. The first round of the championship GZ successfully defeated 6:1. Rematch expected to be very hot.

All this is from Friday to Saturday! On Sunday, two more matches in Loo, where Doker play against Green Way and FC Liikuri with C.A.V.
