KTP form and stats

KTP participated in Finland Cup the last season, where they reached the 8th finals.

Overall Ykkonen stats at home this season for KTP are 5-3-3 (wins-draw-losses).

KTP are returning here after visiting Jaro in a Ykkonen game and winning with a 3-2 scoreline. A. Eerola, P. Voutilainen and Mika scored the goal(s). Before that match, a Ykkonen win away at VPS.

This is expected to be a close game, with KTP perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with KTP as a small favourite), we find two games. KTP has won one of these, drawn one and lost zero.

KTP have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Arto Tolsa Areena with 21 goals in 11 league matches. 14 goals have been conceded.

HIFK form and stats

HIFK was sent out of Finland Cup in the group stage last season.

Playing away, HIFK have won 4 games, drawn 1 and suffered 6 defeats in the Veikkausliiga this season. Bitter travels for HIFK as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Honka match.

There might be some fixture complaints from HIFK as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Veikkausliiga match against Lahti (1-2). Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against RoPS in the Veikkausliiga.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by HIFK in our archives, and the results are: three wins for HIFK, three draws and three defeats.

HIFK are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 11 games (in the league). HIFK's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 17 goals from these trips. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): KTP won three games, three matches ended with a draw and HIFK has four wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: five / five
