HJK form and stats

4-0-0 (win-draw-lost) are the Veikkausliiga numbers at home for HJK, who have the most scored goals (19) in Veikkausliiga, so far this season. The team is doing great wherever they are playing as HJK has won seven games in a row. The KuPS match was the last time out without a victory.

A nice win for HJK last time playing, versus Ilves. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-1 with Filip Valenčič and Jair scoring for the victors.

Before that match, a win away at Mariehamn.

KTP form and stats

1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of KTP playing as the away team in the Veikkausliiga this season. It's looking increasingly bleak for KTP who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Haka was the last time a defeat was avoided.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Veikkausliiga home defeat versus Oulu with 1-3 on the scoreboard.

A 0-2 loss hosting HIFK before that.
