The Honka manager V. Vasara attacks this game with the team placed 6th so far. In the visitors dressing room TPS and their manager T. Pikkarainen are in 11th place before this match.
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.
