An important duel in the bottom section of the Kakkonen, with both PS Kemi and OLS experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 10th and the visitors in 9th place.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
This pitch has grass, which is not OLS's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass OLS have performed like this: Played 18 matches resulting in 5 wins, 2 draws and 11 defeats with the goal stats 19-33 (scored/conceded).
