National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Tervarit-j or VPS that keep their silverware dream alive.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Before that match, a home victory hosting Roi United in the Finland Cup.
Tervarit-j are traveling soon after this match as the Kolmonen - Pohjoinen match at RoPo awaits in three days.
VPS form and stats
Last season their Finland Cup adventure ended in the 6th round.0 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss. That’s the product of VPS playing as the away team in the Veikkausliiga this season.
There might be some fixture complaints from VPS as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 0-4 against HJK. VPS lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
A loss against HJK was the result prior to that, in a Veikkausliiga home game.The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Honka in just three days.
It's early days yet, but VPS has scored 0 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
