OLS form and stats
There's been little loot from OLS's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 7 away games in the Kakkonen. OLS only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 0 draws. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in OLS's last three away games as they have all been lost.
OLS lost away at Vaajakoski (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus GBK.
OLS are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and zero defeats. From a total of one match.
OLS have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 7 league away games 8 goals have been scored. The OLS manager A. Neuvonen has some worries about the defense as 14 goals have been conceded in these travels.
