Venue: Jakobstads Centralplan (3000 seats)

A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 3rd and 8th place in the table will show on the pitch.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Kajaani 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 7-9-12 (win-draw-loss) from 28 matches.
