Following on from suffering a loss in their previous game against KuPS in Veikkausliiga action, SJK will be aiming to make amends here.
Jaime Moreno (24') and Joslyn Luyeye-Lutumba (31') scored for KuPS.
Looking at their form, and SJK have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 9 goals in all. Defensively, SJK certainly have room for improvement. While that may be of interest, time will tell if the trend will be sustained here in this match.

Team News: SJK
From a largely healthy group, there’s only the lone fitness issue for the SJK gaffer Jarkko Wiss to be concerned about. Albin Björkskog (Knee injury) won’t be in action.

Prediction
Our thinking is that FF Jaro are likely to get a goal against this SJK lineup, however a single goal isn’t likely to be as many as the goals that they could concede.
We’ve gone for a tight encounter finishing with a 1-2 advantage for SJK when all is said and done. Looking forward to this.
