VPV hope to fill the stadium for this game even though the season has been strenuous up to now with 17 points and a 10th spot in the Kolmonen - Länsi table. Visiting SJK-juniorit have 8th place with 28 pts.

Insights:
  • VPV have the most conceded goals in the first half (13) in Kolmonen - Länsi
  • SJK-juniorit have won significantly less corners away then at home.

For VPV relegation is already certain this season. Only divine intervention and/or time travel can save them and neither look likely.

VPV and SJK-juniorit should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

VPV form and stats

With 2 Kolmonen - Länsi wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, VPV are certainly not brimming with confidence.

VPV drew their last game, also a home match. Nykarleby IK (placed 9th) was the opponent, 2-2 the score.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Sporting Kristina.

Goals are coming in this club's league rounds, with 11 in a row having at least three goals (over 2.5).

VPV are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 9 games. It's worth mentioning that 11 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. This has been a stadium of sighs so far as VPV have let the opposition score 34 times, an average of more than three per game.

SJK-juniorit form and stats

There's been little loot from SJK-juniorit's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 9 away games in the Kolmonen - Länsi. SJK-juniorit only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 0 draws. Bitter travels for SJK-juniorit as they have lost five games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the SIF match.

SJK-juniorit might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. SIF proved too strong as SJK-juniorit slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans.

Prior to that match, the SJK-juniorit manager faced defeat when travelling to Nykarleby IK and losing 1-4.

Will there be lots of goals? This club have played 11 consecutive league matches all featuring three or more goals (over 2.5 goals).

SJK-juniorit have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 9 league away games 12 goals have been scored. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The opposition has been scoring high and low on SJK-juniorit's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 23 goals in 9 travels.

Head 2 Head

The latest H2H meeting ended SJK-juniorit - VPV 4-0, earlier this season.
