This looks to be an intriguing match as OLS have their supposed home advantage, while Vaajakoski are ahead 5 points in the Kakkonen table.

Insights:
  • All of OLS's home-matches have had more than 1,5 goals.
  • Vaajakoski haven’t played a single 0-0 game away.

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.

7-5-6 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Vaajakoski when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 18 matches are 31-35 (scored/conceded).

Vaajakoski are still fighting for top positions and their benefits.
