The Women's Championship season starts with the defending champion and the newcomer match
The Women's Championship season in Estonia will begin this weekend with a match between the defending champion FC Flora and the newcomer Harju JK Laagri.
The Women's Championship season in Estonia is set to kick off this weekend, marking an exciting event as the defending champions FC Flora face off against Harju JK Laagri, a club making its debut in the top league. The opening match is scheduled for Friday, March 20, at 18:00 at Sportland Arena, a significant moment for the women's football scene in the country.
FC Flora has dominated the league over the past eight seasons, having lifted the championship trophy multiple times. They started the season on a less favorable note by losing in the Super Cup to Saku Sporting, breaking their four-year winning streak. This sets a competitive tone for the upcoming season, as Flora aims to reclaim their dominance and bounce back from the recent defeat.
On the other hand, Harju JK Laagri, a newcomer to the league, has impressed in their pre-season matches, showcasing strong offensive capabilities. They have scored well in their friendlies, which includes a standout performance where they defeated Viimsi JK with a score of 4-0 and previously won against Paide Linnanaiskonna with a score of 5-3. As they enter this significant match against the reigning champions, expectations are high, and it will be interesting to see how they perform in their inaugural match in the Women's Championship.
