For KuPS, goals were scored by Jaakko Oksanen (47') and Petteri Pennanen (77'). Gabriel Europaeus (28') was the scorer for IF Gnistan.

Their more recent scorelines show that much respect should be given to the KuPS backline. KuPS have been mean at the back, with the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net during their last 6 clashes standing at 3. Historical results aside, we will just have to wait and see if that trend shall be maintained in this game.

• are unbeaten in the league by SJK in their previous 5 matches.
• are undefeated in their last 6 league matches at home.

🧠 Prediction

We’re envisaging that SJK will need to apply a lot of pressure to see themselves scoring against this KuPS team who we reckon should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

We therefore fancy a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 winning score for KuPS at the end of the 90 minutes.

Expecting it to be tight.
