VIFK hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 16 points and a 9th position in the Kakkonen table. Visiting JS Hercules holds 7th place with 23 pts.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting JS Hercules have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-2-5 (win-draw-loss) from eleven matches.
