Venue: FAIR PAY Areena

There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with PK-35 leading PKKU by 17 points.

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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting PKKU have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 2-0-5 (win-draw-loss) from seven matches.

PKKU form and stats

The visitors are W0-D1-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Kakkonen. With the PKKU losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

PKKU's previous game was their home loss versus JaPS (1-3). The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against NJS.

PKKU have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 4 league away games 4 goals have been scored. People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that PKKU concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
