The visiting KPV played their last game only four days ago, a Ykkonen match.

6-3-12 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for KPV when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those 21 matches are 19-32 (scored/conceded).

This is expected to be a close game, with VPS perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with VPS as a small favourite), we find eight games. VPS has won one of these, drawn four and lost three.
