Norway Kultsu hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 3 points and a 12th position in the Kakkonen table. Visiting Reipas holds 8th place with 9 pts.
The visiting Reipas played their last game only four days ago, a Kakkonen match. That game was also an away game, at MiPK. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Reipas have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-4-6 (win-draw-loss) from 14 matches.
Kultsu form and stats
When playing at home in the Kakkonen, Kultsu, who have the most conceded goals (12) at home in Kakkonen, have managed 1 win, 0 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 4 games. It's trouble wherever Kultsu are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. The Kultsu manager J. Korhonen might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
No payout for Kultsu in their previous match, an away game at PEPO that ended in defeat 0-1. Ahead of that match, Kultsu lost 1-3 at home to MiPK.
Kultsu are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 5 goals in 4 games. Defensively there's plenty of potential for improvement as Kultsu have allowed the opposition to score 12 goals here at Joutsenon keskuskenttä. Kultsu's defense is seriously deficient as 12 goals have been conceded in these matches.
Reipas form and stats
Playing away, Reipas have won 1 game, drawn 0 and suffered 3 defeats in the Kakkonen this season.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Reipas, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-4 versus MiPK (placed 4th). Prior to that match, a home win 4-1 against PEPO.
Reipas have scored 5 goals on their travels this season, from 4 away games in the league. Reipas have conceded 9 goals in these games.
