EIF cannot look for any easy points from the home team TPS in this Ykkonen fixture. Here's your comprehensive match preview!
- TPS have the fewest clean sheets (0) at home in Ykkonen
- EIF have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting EIF have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 5-9-5 (win-draw-loss) from 19 matches.
