HJK form and stats

The visitors, who have the most scored goals (22) in Veikkausliiga, are W2-D3-L1 on the road this term. That's in the Veikkausliiga.

HJK are travelling after their nice 1-0 home win in the fixture against KTP (placed 8th).

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Lahti.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the HJK manager Koskela as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Honka.

HJK have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 6 league away games 8 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, HJK have seen the ball go into their own net 7 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

The 9 most recent meetings involving these teams have all ended as HJK wins. Surely both teams are aware of this.

These two sides faced each other previously this match year: HJK - Haka 2-0.
