Estonia will be looking to maintain their 100% record in the Nations League when they welcome Malta to A. Le Coq Arena in Tallin for their League D group 2 tie on Friday night.
Estonia have 100% in League D group 2 after two matches as they claimed a 2-0 win over San Marion on the opening day before beating Malta 2-1 at away on Matchday Three.
They now sit at the top of the group; jointly on six points with Malta in the second spot, but Malta have played three games.
A win for Estonia on Friday will seal their top spot finish in the group regardless of the results on the final day. Therefore they will be in all guns blazing and having already won at away in this fixture earlier, they should fancy their chances at home.
Malta will be playing their final match of Nations League this Friday, and as mentioned earlier they sit second in group 2 of League D level on six points Estonia at the top with still two matches to play. Therefore to increase their chances of finishing at the top of the group Malta need a win on Friday and hope that San Marino can get points off Estonia on the final day.
They won 1-0 against San Marino last time out and they will hope to build on that as they seek to upset Estonia on Friday. However, they have not beaten their hosts in their last four meetings and will have a lot to do to upset them.
