HJK form and stats

HJK have played 11 Veikkausliiga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-6-1 (wins-draws-losses).

The fans are hoping that HJK will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the Veikkausliiga game against Honka. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at KuPS.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from HJK's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played two games, won 0 matches, drawn 2 and lost 0.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Veikkausliiga home defeat versus KuPS with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Mariehamn manager P. Lundberg faced defeat when travelling to Inter Turku and losing 0-2.
