The Veikkausliiga tie at Tammelan Stadion on Saturday sees home side Ilves lock horns with opponents SJK.
For all of our match predictions, pre-game poll and statistics for Ilves v SJK, scroll down - along with the latest match odds.
Ilves are hoping to win again after their last result, a 5-0 Veikkausliiga victory over FF Jaro.
For Ilves, the scorers were Jardell Kanga (4', 38'), Teemu Hytönen (8', 26') and Roope Riski (81').
Fixtures involving Ilves have tended to be exciting encounters of late with a lot of goalmouth action being a real hallmark. Over their past half dozen clashes alone, the sum total of 21 goals have been scored for both sides combined (at an average of 3.5 goals per game) with 11 of them coming from Ilves.
Since a losing effort in their last game against VPS Vaasa in Veikkausliiga competition, SJK will be aiming to make amends here.
The only name on the scoresheet from SJK was Jeremiah Streng (38'). Simon Lindholm (60') and Luka Smyth (88') scored for VPS Vaasa.
The stats don’t lie, and SJK have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 11 goals overall. Defensively, SJK have seen their frailties exposed. That trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this match, however.
Inspecting their past head-to-head meetings dating back to 19/10/2024 shows us that Ilves have won 1 of these and SJK 2, with the number of draws being 3.
Loads of goals were seen in those games, too - 22 overall which averages out at 3.67 goals per meeting.
The last league clash between these clubs was Veikkausliiga match day 5 on 02/05/2026 and the score finished SJK 1-1 Ilves.
The referee was Amir Hajizadeh.
Due to a mostly available group, there is only a single fitness worry for the SJK manager Jarkko Wiss to be concerned about. Albin Björkskog (Knee injury) won’t be playing here.
We’re inclined to think that SJK should get enough chances to find the back of the net against this Ilves lineup, but that might not quite be enough to avoid a loss.
We are anticipating both teams to score in a 2-1 win for Ilves by the conclusion of the game. We’ll have to see what happens.
