Paide will host Kalev on Wednesday, 11th of March, in the Estonian Cup quarter-final, with the match due to kick off at 18:00 local time.
Having finished fourth in the league last season, the cup has added importance for Paide if they are to hope for European qualifiers later this year. They need to either win the competition themselves or hope for Flora to win. Paide won the Estonian Cup only once previously, back in 2022.
Paide come into the tie looking to respond after a dramatic start to the Premium liiga season on Saturday, when they let a 2-0 lead slip to lose 3-2 to Pärnu Vaprus. Kalev also began their league campaign with defeat, going down 3-0 to Welco in the Esiliiga.
Flora and Vaprus have already booked their places in the semi-finals. The final semi-final spot will be decided by Narva Trans and Viimsi, who will play in parallel.
Both matches are available to watch for free on Youtube:
