HIFK VPS betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 8^th position of the league, with 10 points won, after 3 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Inter Turku, by (1‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Mariehamn, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 9 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses in away matches, with 46 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 11 conceded. In their last match, for the Suomen Cup, they got a home tie against HJK by (1‑1), after a penalty shootout. In the last 5 away league matches VPS has a record of 3 wins and 2 losses, so they have won 9 points out of 15 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 9 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 9 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 31 of the last 35 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 9 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Vaasan Palloseura arrives for this match, which is away from home, excited by the great victory they had away from home against Mariehamn, by 1-3, which made the team jump in the table, from the penultimate place (11th) with 7 points, tied with Mariehamn, for 8th position, with 10 points in the Veikkausliiga. Vaasan OS is in their first season in the Veikkausliiga (the First Division of Finland) since the last fall to the Ykkonen (the Second Division), which took place in 2019. However, despite the difficulties that the team is encountering to return to play in the highest level of national competitiveness, VPS is managing to play a relatively regular campaign so far: with 10 points added (3 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses) in the 9 rounds played, it occupies the 8th position of the Veikkausliiga, having a 7 point advantage for the last (12th) place. Now, even playing away from home, the team plays against the lantern of the championship. It is worth mentioning that although their defense is not very good, the opponent's attack is the worst in the competition, having scored only 7 goals in the championship.

Confirmed Lineup: Teppo Marttinen, Juhani Pikkarainen, Samba Sillah, Samuel Lindeman, Tyler Reid, Mikko Pitkänen, Jesper Engstrom, Prosper Ahiabu, Aleksi Pahkasalo, Kalle Multanen, Tete Yengi.
