Flora will begin the defence of their Women’s Super Cup title against Saku Sporting on Friday, with kick-off at 19:00 local time.
The Estonian champions are chasing a record-extending 10th Super Cup after winning the fixture nine times since the competition was introduced in 2009. Flora also won this match-up comfortably last year and have beaten Saku in each of the past four Super Cup finals, while Saku are still seeking a first title in the competition.
The sides met four times in the league last season. Flora won the first two meetings, Saku then earned a 1-0 victory in the third, before Flora took the points again in the most recent encounter.
Defender Kristiina Tullus said: “One match, one trophy. The aim is to start the season with a win and lift the cup at the final whistle.”
Saku head coach Merily Toom said the team were ready for the challenge. She said: “The long-awaited new domestic season is just around the corner and there is no better way to start than by playing for a trophy straight away. The opponent is strong, we are ready and the weather promises to be good. We are looking forward to seeing everyone at the stadium.”
Defender Viktoria Toding added that Saku expected an intense game and wanted to show they could push Flora all the way.
