Only a win will satisfy the home supporters in this Telia 5G -areena clash with RoPS, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the Veikkausliiga table.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

It's quite the trip for RoPS when visiting HJK as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.
