The only player to score from KuPS was Piotr Parzyszek (81'). Maksim Stjopin (54') scored for Ilves.

Over their past six games, the sum total of 20 goals have gone in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.33 goals per game) with 13 of them belonging to KuPS. That kind of trend won’t necessarily be continued into this next game, of course.

After a loss in their previous game against IF Gnistan in Veikkausliiga competition, HJK and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

For HJK, the goalscorers were Lucas Lingman (9') and Teemu Pukki (42'). Didrik Hafstad (27'), Evgeniy Bashkirov (55') and Tim Väyrynen (93') scored for IF Gnistan.

HJK have been good when going forward leading up to this encounter, having scored 19 goals in their previous 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that HJK have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 5 of those same matches.

Their prior results show that HJK:

  • are winless against KuPS in away games against them for the last 7 league games. They'll be keen to stop this run.
  • haven't been defeated in their previous 6 away league matches.
  • have not won away from home in their last 2 league games.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that HJK and KuPS may find themselves both scoring more than one goal each in what promises to be a fairly balanced contest.

It will be interesting to see how this one goes, with a good chance of a draw and also of goals in the match. That’s why we have predicted a high-scoring affair with a score draw by the conclusion of the match.
