Struggling HIFK will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying KuPS in the upcoming league round. It’s 11th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

HIFK have less rest than KuPS in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Veikkausliiga game only four days ago. This match was also played here at Telia 5G -areena. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, KuPS have had more rest.
