The visiting RoPS II side should be favourites in this visit to Kemi City, as the away team holds a 10 point advantage from their seven league games this season.

Insights:
  • Kemi City have the the worst goal difference (-7) at home in Kakkonen

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.

Kemi City form and stats

Kemi City have played three Kakkonen home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. It's trouble wherever Kemi City are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The Kemi fans got no joy from their last match, a Kakkonen game also here at Sauvosaaren Takakenttä N: A 0-1 defeat against Vaajakoski (placed 5th).

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting GBK (1-3).

The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Kraft in only three days.

Kemi City have scored 1 goal here in 3 league matches, a depressing statistic. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Kemi City have allowed the opposition to score 8 goals here at Sauvosaaren Takakenttä N.

RoPS II form and stats

RoPS II are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Kakkonen, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). RoPS has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Two away games in a row for RoPS, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-4 versus JBK in the Kakkonen.

Prior to that match, a home win 3-0 against Kraft.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far RoPS II have scored 3 goals in 3 league games away. RoPS's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.
