JS Hercules form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for JS Hercules's two home games in the Kakkonen so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Oulu-lehti Areena.

A nice win for JS Hercules last time playing, versus GBK. That was also a home game and the match ended 6-0 with S. Leppälä (2), J. Kilpeläinen, H. Seikkala and M. Adeniran scoring for the victors. As mentioned above, JS Hercules "killed" GBK in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

2-2 away at Vaajakoski before that.
