National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's KaaPo or EIF that keep their silverware dream alive.

4 - 7 - 4 with 28-26. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for EIF when playing on grass like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. EIF play their home games on artifical turf so that's why we provide these numbers.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for KaaPo and EIF.

KaaPo form and stats

KaaPo was eliminated in the 4th round last season in the Finland Cup.

The followers are hoping that KaaPo will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the game against Peimari United.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus VG-62 that ended 2-2.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on EIF to win. Let's see if KaaPo are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: 5 games found revealing 1 KaaPo win, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Kolmonen - Länsi game versus Inter Turku II in only four days. This game is also played here at Kaarinan KHT.

EIF form and stats

EIF's mission in Finland Cup last season failed in the 5th round.

Still no away game victory in the Ykkonen for EIF with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

EIF won their last game, 2-1 versus SJK Akatemia played at home.

A 0-0 draw at Gnistan's stadium before that.

Again, the away team are huge favourites in this match and any other result would be an upset. We checked our Tipsway database for earlier, recent games with EIF given similar win odds in an away game. This check revealed 4 matches with 3 wins as expected, 1 draw and 0 surprise home wins. The favourites won 3 of these games by at least two goals.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Ykkonen trip to SalPa.

It's early days yet, but EIF has scored 0 and conceded 1 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Data for the last ten meetings featuring these two contenders are: five wins for KaaPo, three draws and two wins for EIF. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
