Riga FC and RFS are by far the best teams in Latvia. However, RFS are much better than Riga FC so far, as Simo Valakari's team is trailing five points behind the biggest rival. However, Riga FC have been playing great lately, with a 4-2-0 record in the last six matches. In the previous game, they won 2-0 on the road against Daugavpils. Guests finished the game with 58% ball possession and eight shots on the goal more than the opponent, so Riga FC's win was well deserved. If Valakari's team maintains this form, they will have a solid chance to retake the leading spot from their biggest rival in Latvian football. 

Last season, Tukums barely escaped relegation. This year, they are much better, as Kristaps Dislers' team separated itself by seven points from the drop zone. However, recently, Tukums struggled with only one point in the last four matches. In the previous game, they lost 1-0 at home against RFS. The league leader completely dominated, so although Tukums lost, they can actually be satisfied with a minimal defeat. 

Riga FC vs Tukums pick: Under 3.5 goals 

Riga FC had an impressive defense recently, with three allowed goals in the last four matches. On the other hand, Tukums scored only three goals in the previous four games. Under 3.5 goals should be the best betting choice for this match.
