It's early days in the Kakkonen and both Kultsu and PKKU are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
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.
Kultsu form and stats
The story so far in the Kakkonen for Kultsu at their home stadium (Joutsenon keskuskenttä) is 0 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Kultsu with their five defeats in a row. Not since the JaPS game, 1022 days ago, have they avoided a loss. With Kultsu having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager J. Korhonen.
Kultsu are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus EPS. Preceding that match was the home game against JaPS that was lost 0-5.
Early season league goal statistics from Kultsu's 1 home game: 0 goals, 5 conceded.
PKKU form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Kakkonen ended in defeat. Last season PKKU had these away match statistics: Played 11; won 4, drew 2 and lost 5. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as PKKU have lost on their last two travels.
PKKU delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Kiffen (placed 8th) in their previous match; a Kakkonen game. Prior to that match, the PKKU manager R. Hakanpää faced defeat when travelling to MiPK and losing 0-3.
PKKU have the goal stats of 0-3 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
