Joni Lehtonen's Ilves have hit the target 7 times over their past 6 outings. The corresponding number of goals that have been scored against them in those fixtures is 11.
TPS Turku
DDWLLW ⚖
TPS Turku will come into the meeting after a 1-0 Veikkausliiga win in the defeat of VPS Vaasa in their most recent game.
The only player to score from TPS Turku was Miika Kauppila (83').
Ivan Piñol's TPS Turku have seen their efforts on goal rewarded a total of 6 times throughout their most recent six matches. The number of goals that they have conceded during those same clashes adds up to 6.

We are anticipating a 2-1 advantage for Ilves at full-time. Should be an interesting one.
