Mariehamn form and stats

With 1 Veikkausliiga win, 1 draw and 6 defeats from their home games, Mariehamn are certainly not brimming with confidence. Mariehamn are slowly digging their own grave here at Wiklöf Holding Arena with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Oulu match.

Mariehamn's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-3 versus Honka (placed 6th).

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at HJK.

Mariehamn have scored 4 goals here in 8 league matches, a depressing statistic. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Mariehamn defense is not exactly impregnable. 14 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Ilves form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Ilves so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-6 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Ilves's last three away games as they have all been lost.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Ilves, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-2 versus Inter Turku (placed 3rd).

Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Honka's place.

The attacking power of Ilves when travelling is not overwhelming with 7 goals scored from 9 league matches away. Ilves's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 15 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Mariehamn two wins, two draws and Ilves six victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.
