The Kakkonen league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Vaajakoski and PS Kemi are placed 10th and 7th respectively.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

Vaajakoski form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Vaajakoski's two home games in the Kakkonen so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Vaajakosken urheilukenttä.

Vaajakoski faced defeat in their previous match, away at JS Hercules (0-4). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting JJK (1-2).

PS Kemi form and stats

It's not happening yet for PS Kemi on their Kakkonen travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Kemi has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Home advantage was not enough for PS Kemi in their previous game, as they lost their Kakkonen-match, hosting OLS, 0-1. That result followed a home victory 4-1 versus VIFK.

1 goal so far away for PS Kemi, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 5. All from 2 league matches away.
