The Veikkausliiga season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between HIFK and Inter Turku promises to be an interesting one.
- HIFK have the most dropped points from leading position (4) in Veikkausliiga
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
6-5-8 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Inter Turku when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 19 matches are 20-24 (scored/conceded).
HIFK form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for HIFK's two home games in the Veikkausliiga so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Bolt Arena.
Happy days for HIFK in their previous game, a Veikkausliiga match away at Oulu (placed 12th) that ended with a 2-1 victory.
Before that, HIFK drew at home versus Ilves.HIFK has scored 3 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
Inter Turku form and stats
Things could have gone better for Inter Turku in their Veikkausliiga away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.
Inter go into this game after a win, the home game against KTP that ended 2-1. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager J. Riveiro when M. Ojala scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 77th minute. Late drama in the previous game, when M. Ojala scored the winning goal four minutes into stoppage time to defeat KTP.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Honka.It's early days yet, but Inter Turku has scored 3 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: zero - four - six (HIFK wins - draws - Inter Turku wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.Top Goalscorers
