- Haka have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Ilves have scored away.

Haka have played 4 Veikkausliiga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-3-0 (wins-draws-losses).

Haka faced defeat in their previous match, away at KuPS (0-3).
In the match before, 1-1 away to Oulu (after extra-time, 5-3 on penalties) (Finland Cup). The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest.

Ilves form and stats
Playing away, Ilves have won 1 game, drawn 1 and suffered 2 defeats in the Veikkausliiga this season.
Ilves's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Lahti that finished 2-2. It looked so good for Ilves vs Lahti, but the job was not completed and victory was lost as a 2-0 lead was turned into a 2-2 draw.
A home win as anticipated against KaPa preceding that, in the Finland Cup. So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Ilves playing away and similar expectations, we found 7 relevant matches. Results were 1 Ilves win, 1 draw and 5 defeats.
