Kultsu form and stats

Kultsu's struggle is real here at Kimpisen Urheilupuisto with only 6 points collected from 6 Kakkonen games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-0-4.

Kultsu shared the glory with NJS in their last match, an away game that ended all square 3-3. Heartbreak before that as Kultsu lost 1-7 at Reipas's place.

A disappointing finish for Kultsu in their match versus NJS as their 3-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 3-3 full time score. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Kultsu are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 6 games. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Kultsu having conceded 17 goals here at Kimpisen Urheilupuisto so far.
