The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. PEPO are in the 8th position while the guesting Kultsu worry at 12th.
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.
PEPO form and stats
PEPO have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the Kakkonen. A decent catch, still with room for improvement. PEPO have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.
PEPO lost their last game at Reipas (placed 7th) after a 1-4 scoreline. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Honka Akatemia.
PEPO has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. From these home matches, PEPO have conceded only 2 goals.
Kultsu form and stats
It's not happening yet for Kultsu on their Kakkonen travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? It's all red in the travel logs of Kultsu, having lost four matches in a row as the visiting team. It's looking increasingly bleak for Kultsu who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. PKKU was the last time a defeat was avoided.
The manager J. Korhonen was unhappy after their last game, a Kakkonen match played at their home ground Joutsenon keskuskenttä. Kultsu suffered a 1-3 loss to MiPK (placed 6th). Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Viikingit's place.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from Kultsu's away games in the league this season with only 1 goal from 3 matches. Kultsu's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 5 goals from these trips.
Head 2 Head
As for the last four games between these two teams, there's four PEPO victories, zero draws and zero Kultsu wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, one match with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
