This could be an interesting match as Lahti have their presumed home advantage while HJK are ahead 4 points in the Veikkausliiga table.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting HJK have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 6-3-3 (win-draw-loss) from twelve matches.
