HJK

HJK were held to a 1-1 draw in their last games against Haka. Niklas Friberg opened the scoring for Haka in the 13th minute of the game, but Luke Plange managed to salvage a point for his side in the 54th minute, ending in a one-all draw. HJK are now unbeaten in their last four games with two wins and two draws. They are 3rd on the table with 8 points in 5 games, scoring 11 goals and conceding 8.

HJK have no issues with their attacks; they have scored in their last eight games and 15 of their previous 16 games.

Topi Keskinen has been exceptional for his side this season. The 21-year-old midfielder is the highest goalscorer in the league this season, with four goals and one assist.

Ekenäs

Ekenäs were defeated 2-1 in their last outing against Inter Turku. Iiro Jarvinen scored the game's first goal for Inter Turku, and Timo Stavitski doubled the lead in the 62nd minute. Darren Smith had a chance to extend the lead to 3, but he missed from the penalty spot before Abdoulaye Kante got 1 goal for Ekenäs. Ekenäs were limited to just 38% possession of the ball and managed just one shot on target.

Ekenäs have been struggling this season after finding it hard to control the tempo of games in three of the four games played so far. They could only control their game against Haka, where they saw 63% possession of the ball. Aside from the game, they have managed possession below 40% in the other three games (35% possession against Mariehamn, 31% possession against Oulu, and 38% possession in their last game against Inter Turku).

Things have been hard for the newcomers this season as they have yet to see a win, with three losses and one draw. They sit bottom of the table with 1 point in 4 games, scoring five and conceding 8. Despite their struggles, they are super sharp in front of goal, as they have scored in their last 25 games in all competitions. They even recorded a 11-0 win in their previous cup fixture against Tampere Utd 2.

Expert Betting Tips

HJK have been superb this season, and they have already picked up 8 points, placing them 3rd on the table. They will win the first 45 minutes with Ekenäs' poor games in the first half. However, Ekenäs are sharp in front of goal, as they have scored in their last 25 games in all competitions. So they should be able to score here.
