The season is still fairly new and the Ykkonen table has to be read with caution. So far VPS find themselves in 8th position and SJK Akatemia are placed 12th.
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.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the VPS at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
SJK Akatemia form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Ykkonen ended in defeat. Last season SJK Akatemia had these away match statistics: Played 1; won 1, drew 0 and lost 0. With the Akatemia losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.
S. Strandvall was the last player to score for the away team. Akatemia haven't scored a league goal in the last 360 minutes.
SJK Akatemia failed to get anything from their last game, a Ykkonen home match vs MuSa (placed 7th) that ended with defeat 0-2. Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Oulu's place.
0 goals so far away for SJK Akatemia, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.
