An important duel in the bottom section of the Kakkonen, with both Jazz and P-Iirot experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 10th and the visitors in 11th place.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Jazz's stadium, Porin Stadion, has a grass surface. P-Iirot have artifical turf on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for P-Iirot when playing on grass; 8 wins, 9 draws and 14 losses from 31 matches. They have scored 49 goals in these games and conceded 58.
Jazz form and stats
Jazz have played three Kakkonen home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Two draws in a row at home now for Jazz.
No payout for Jazz in their previous match, an away game at Klubi-04 that ended in defeat 0-2. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus SalPa.
The Jazz fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Jazz defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
P-Iirot form and stats
The Kakkonen season is young and P-Iirot have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. P-Iirot seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
P-Iirot play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Atlantis (placed 3rd). That result followed a home victory 3-2 versus TPV.
P-Iirot 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.
P-Iirot are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 0 goals from 3 away games. The P-Iirot manager S. Green has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between the teams: Jazz won four, P-Iirot won two and four draws. six games with over 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
