Yet another engrossing game in the Veikkausliiga Play-offs. RoPS is in the 2nd place from featuring in zero games. They host Oulu who are placed 1st from zero matches.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Veikkausliiga game only three days ago.
6 - 4 - 7 with 25-26. What does this mean? Well, these are the statistics for Oulu when playing on artifical turf like they will do today. Wins - draws- losses and goals scored-conceded. Oulu play their home games on grass so that's why we provide these numbers.
RoPS form and stats
It's the first season at a new level for RoPS as they were promoted from Ykkonen last season. Happy days that were secured through 12 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses from 22 games. The team scored 21 goals at home last season and conceded 11. It will be interesting to see how they perform at this level.
RoPS are traveling soon after this match as the Veikkausliiga Play-offs match at Oulu awaits in four days.
Oulu form and stats
The last season was not a pleasant experience for Oulu as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 5 victories from 22 games, relegation was a fact. Oulu's manager R. Duarte are hoping to lead the team right back to Veikkausliiga at the first attempt.
After this away game Oulu return home for a Veikkausliiga Play-offs game against RoPS. That game is only four sleeps after this.
