It's still early in the Kakkonen season, but we are learning more and more about the teams. Here is the GBK - JBK preview!
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.
JBK play their home games on artifical turf, while this game is played on grass. Recent stats for JBK when playing on grass are 6 wins, 5 draws and 9 defeats from 20 matches. They have scored 35 goals and conceded 36 times in these games.
GBK form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for GBK's two home games in the Kakkonen so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Kokkolan Keskuskenttä.
Happy days for GBK in their previous game, a Kakkonen match away at Kiisto (placed 12th) that ended with a 3-0 victory. Ahead of that match, GBK won a home game hosting PS Kemi (3-1).
GBK has scored 4 goals so far and conceded 2 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
JBK form and stats
Still no away game victory in the Kakkonen for JBK with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.
The supporters enjoyed JBK's previous game versus RoPS II (placed 7th), a Kakkonen 4-3 win played at home. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Vaajakoski wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.
As you can tell from the result, the match against RoPS II was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
JBK have the goal stats of 1-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: six wins for GBK, two draws and two wins for JBK. Over 2,5 goals: eight times; under 2,5 goals: two games.Top Goalscorers
