Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, PK-35 in 6th and Honka W in 5th 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.
PK-35 form and stats
PK-35's struggle is real here at FAIR PAY Areena with only 4 points collected from 6 Kansallinen Liiga Women games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-4. Three consecutive losses here at FAIR PAY Areena is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.
PK-35 are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Åland United. Preceding that match was the home game against TiPS W that was lost 0-1.
This is expected to be a close game, with PK-35 perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with PK-35 as a small favourite), we find one game. PK-35 has won zero of these, drawn zero and lost one.
The goals haven't exactly been flowing for PK-35 here at FAIR PAY Areena in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (5 from 6 games). PK-35 have conceded 7 in these home matches.
Honka W form and stats
4-0-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Honka W, who have the fewest clean sheets (0) in Kansallinen Liiga Women, in their Kansallinen Liiga Women matches away. Having won their last three away games Honka W has no reason to fear anyone.
Honka play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 4-3 victory visiting JyPK W (placed 9th). A loss against TPS W was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Honka W can call themselves comeback kings after the match against JyPK W. Buried deep in trouble at 0-3, the troops rallied and completely turned the match around to a 4-3 victory. A. Vuorinen scored the final goal. As you can tell from the result, the match against JyPK W was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Honka W playing away and similar expectations, we found one relevant match. Results were one Honka W win, zero draws and zero defeats.
The Honka manager R. Lappi-Seppälä has got the team scoring on the road, with 15 away goals in 7 league matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Honka W have conceded 13 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
