Venue: Kymenlaakson Sähkö Stadion (4167 seats)

MYPA hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 18 points and a 10th position in the Ykkonen table. Visiting KTP holds 4th place with 35 pts.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting KTP have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 4-4-4 (win-draw-loss) from twelve matches.

MYPA form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Ykkonen this season. MYPA, who have the most conceded goals (54) in Ykkonen, have only managed 2 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Kymenlaakson Sähkö Stadion.

MYPA's previous game was a Ykkonen match also played at home, ending 3-2 versus MuSa (placed 5th). The home side are looking to build on that result. In the game before, an away victory match versus EIF with a 3-2 scoreline.

The MYPA fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 11 matches. MYPA have conceded 24 goals in these home games, a significant number.

KTP form and stats

5 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses. That’s the product of KTP playing as the away team in the Ykkonen this season.

KTP play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 5-4 victory visiting Kajaani (placed 8th). A home win before that, celebrating 3-1 vs Jaro.

KTP are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 20 times in 12 away games so far. The KTP manager A. Arbeiter has some worries about the defense as 26 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; KTP - MYPA 2-0. Numbers for the last two meetings between these two teams are: 0 wins for MYPA, 1 draw and 1 win for KTP. Over 2,5 goals: 0 times; under 2,5 goals: 2 games.
