Match begins: 15:30 (UTC)
Venue: Elisa Stadion (6000 seats)

Season ticket holders at Elisa Stadion haven’t seen too many victories this season, with VPS languishing in the 11th position so far. The guesting KuPS will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It's no vacation for neither VPS nor KuPS as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical grass and that the visiting KuPS have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical grass is 8-6-8 (win-draw-loss) from 22 matches.
