Win Probability: Tukums 2000 or Riga FC?

The calculation starts from the head-to-head record (0 wins for Tukums 2000 in 18 attempts, 2 draws), then adjusts for current form and league positions. Riga FC’s away record (8 wins in 11 away games) and Tukums 2000’s overall struggles (only 3 wins all season) make an away win the most likely outcome.
