KPV form and stats

0 victories, 2 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what KPV have to build on here at Kokkolan Keskuskenttä in the Ykkonen. It's trouble wherever KPV are playing these days as they have suffered six straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

KPV lost their last game at SJK Akatemia (placed 5th) after a 0-2 scoreline.

Before that game, a nice away win at Atlantis. A Finland Cup game.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for KPV, as the Ykkonen home game vs KäPa is only three days away.

KPV have scored {2 league goals} here from 4 matches, not a lot.

SalPa form and stats

Things could have gone better for SalPa in their Ykkonen away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right. Recent form does not give SalPa much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. KPV will be a tough nut to crack.

SalPa might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. MP proved too strong as SalPa slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Salon Urheilupuisto Stadion. An interesting fact; the final result 1-2 has been on "repeat" three games in a row!

Earlier, the Finland Cup win away at HooGee.

Will there be lots of goals? This team have played 5 consecutive league games all having at least three goals (over 2.5 goals).

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Ykkonen trip to Jaro.

The travelling fans enjoy SalPa's attacking play in away games, having scored 5 goals in 3 league matches away.
