Perhaps a welcome break from league football as PeKa & KTP face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Finland Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!
These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
There haven't been much to rest for the hosts, as they played a Kakkonen fixture only three days ago. That game was an away game at KaPa, so at least PeKa are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
