A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The JBK fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and VIFK's 11th place in the table will show on the pitch.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting VIFK have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 6-4-12 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.
JBK form and stats
When playing at home in the Kakkonen, JBK have managed 4 wins, 0 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 5 games. Two home wins in a row for JBK bring valid hopes of a third.
JBK enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Kiisto's place. The match ended 2-0 with K. Larsson (2) scoring. Previous to that game, a home match hosting GBK in a game that was won 3-2.
JBK are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at Länsikenttä tekonurmi in their league games, having scored an impressive 13 goals in 5 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 9 goals have been conceded.
VIFK form and stats
The visitors, who have the most conceded goals (24) in Kakkonen, are W2-D0-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Kakkonen.
The VIFK goalkeeper is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 190 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
Impressive finishing from K. Jawanmiri and M. Maki (3) secured the home win 4-0 against GBK in their previous game. Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Kiisto.
As mentioned above, VIFK was the only team on the pitch versus GBK in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task. M. Maki certainly enjoyed VIFK's last game versus GBK, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 4-0 victory.
VIFK find the net regularly in their away games. 7 goals from 5 away fixtures in the league. VIFK can't defend away. 16 goals have been scored by the opposition in 5 matches, an average of more than three per game.
