Crucial battle in the bottom section of the Ykkonen, with both KäPa and Jaro feeling more concern than delight. This fixture is a typical "six-pointer" with the team playing at home positioned 10th and the guests in 11th place.

Insights:
  • KäPa have the most conceded goals (30) in Ykkonen
  • Jaro have the fewest scored goals in the first half (2) in Ykkonen

It should be mentioned that Jaro play their home matches on grass, so they have to adjust for this one as it's played on artifical turf. Does it matter?
