The Veikkausliiga season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between RoPS and HIFK promises to be an interesting one.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Veikkausliiga game only four days ago. That game was a home fixture for HIFK, against Honka. But now it's all about beating RoPS!

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 800 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
