KTP and EIF have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Ykkonen.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

This pitch has grass, which is not EIF's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass EIF have performed like this: Played 33 matches resulting in 6 wins, 5 draws and 22 defeats with the goal stats 31-74 (scored/conceded).

KTP form and stats

When playing at home in the Ykkonen, KTP have managed 4 wins, 1 draw and suffered 4 defeats from 9 games. KTP has recorded two wins in a row here at Arto Tolsa Areena, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.

In their previous game, the manager A. Arbeiter led his KTP to a defeat in the Ykkonen match away at Haka. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Arto Tolsa Areena. Before that match, a win away at Oulu.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does KTP handle that role? We have found three games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W2-D1-L0.

A decent goal production from KTP in their home games so far, with 16 goals from 9 league matches. KTP have conceded 12 in these home matches.

EIF form and stats

There's been little loot from EIF's travels as they have only collected 9 points from 10 away games in the Ykkonen. EIF only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 0 draws.

EIF's last game was the home draw against TPS (0-0). Preceding that game, the 1-4 loss visiting Jaro's place.

EIF are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. From a total of five matches.

EIF are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 12 away goals from 10 games (in the league). People interested in "over 2,5 goals" betting will like to know that EIF concede an average of more than 2,5 goals per away match all on their own.
