Venue: Tuusulan Urheilukeskus Stadion

The visiting PK-35 side should be favourites in this visit to PKKU, as the away team holds a 8 point advantage from their six league games this season.

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 grass and that the visiting PK-35 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 7-4-8 (win-draw-loss) from 19 matches.
