Perhaps a welcome break from league football as KPV & VPS face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Finland Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
KPV form and stats
Last season their Finland Cup adventure ended in the group stage.Only two Ykkonen home games for KPV so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
KPV haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 239 minutes ago. Heiermann scored that one.
An away draw last time out for KPV, facing JäPS in a game that ended 0-0.
Preceding that match was the home Ykkonen game against Gnistan that was lost 0-2.At Kokkolan Keskuskenttä, KPV has the goal stats of 3-4 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
VPS form and stats
Last season their Finland Cup adventure ended in the 8th finals.Things could have gone better for VPS in their Veikkausliiga away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.
Two away games in a row for VPS, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-3 versus KuPS.
It was a Veikkausliiga defeat before that one as the away game against Ilves wasn't a success with a 2-3 loss.VPS have another match that requires travelling in just four nights, a Veikkausliiga match vs Haka. A strenuous timetable for them!
VPS create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 8 goals in 3 travels.
Head 2 Head
