LWLDDW ⚖

SJK have seen success in front of goal in their most recent fixtures, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 matches. While their manager Jarkko Wiss will no doubt take that as a positive sign, SJK can also improve defensively after being scored against in 6 of those same games. We will just have to find out if that trend can be continued on into this next match.
Leading up to this clash, SJK:
- have not been beaten by VPS Vaasa when having played them away from home in the previous 2 league games.
- have not been beaten in their last 3 league matches away from home.
- are without an away win for the past 2 matches in the league.

📋 Team News: SJK
Out of a mainly full-strength group, there’s just the lone fitness worry for the SJK gaffer Jarkko Wiss to be concerned about. Albin Björkskog (Knee injury) misses out for this game.
⚡ Prediction
In our opinion, SJK will surely be able to get a goal against this VPS Vaasa lineup, although that might not quite be enough to avoid a loss.
We’re predicting a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 victory for VPS Vaasa by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Should be a good one.
