The match will be held in Almeria, and ERR's sports portal will provide live coverage starting at 20:20. The Estonian team, which began the qualifiers last November, has faced tough competition and has yet to secure a win against the Netherlands, Slovenia, and Latvia. Captain Anna Gret Asi expressed her hopes for the team to demonstrate a smart and competitive performance during this crucial game in front of their home crowd.

Anna Gret Asi noted that while the team is not currently in a winning position in their group, they are drawing motivation from a recent strong performance against Slovenia, where they showcased potential that they hope to replicate in the upcoming match. With a squad comprised of players from various European leagues, as well as some young talents from home and the addition of Keandra Koorits from the USA, the team is working hard to adapt and enhance their gameplay in order to improve their standing in the qualifiers.

Training together at the beginning of the week, the Estonian players are focusing on collaboration and strategy to enhance their chances against the Netherlands. With a blend of experienced and newcomer players, there is optimism within the team to rise above their previous losses and deliver a remarkable performance that could alter their prospects in the ongoing qualifiers for the European Championship.
