A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The PIF fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and P-Iirot's 12th place in the table will show on the pitch.
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.
PIF's stadium, Pajbackan kenttä, has a grass surface. P-Iirot have artifical turf on their own stadium. This might or might not make a difference, and to help evaluate that we give you the recent performance numbers for P-Iirot when playing on grass; 8 wins, 10 draws and 13 losses from 31 matches. They have scored 48 goals in these games and conceded 56.
PIF form and stats
1-2-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Kakkonen numbers at home for PIF so far this season.
The PIF fans got no joy from their last match, a Kakkonen game also here at Pajbackan kenttä: A 2-3 defeat against SalPa (placed 7th). In the preceding match a 3-2 victory visiting P-Iirot.
A decent goal production from PIF in their home games so far, with 7 goals from 4 league matches. On the other hand, PIF have conceded 4 goals.
P-Iirot form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Kakkonen travels is 0 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
Home advantage was not enough for P-Iirot in their previous game, as they lost their Kakkonen-match, hosting KaaPo, 0-2. Preceding that, the 2-3 home loss versus PIF.
There's been a serious shortage of goals from P-Iirot's away games in the league this season with only 0 goals from 4 matches. P-Iirot's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 6 goals from these trips.
