Inter Turku

Inter Turku will be looking to turn their recent form around as they face an opportunity to break their negative streak against a struggling opponent. In their previous match, a 2-0 home defeat to VPS, Inter Turku had numerous shots on goal but failed to find the back of the net, resulting in another disappointing loss.

Despite their struggles, Inter Turku has had a decent season overall and is likely to finish as a mid-table team. However, their recent form has been concerning, with only one victory in their last six matches across all competitions. Currently sitting 6th in the league table with 18 points from 13 games, Inter Turku will need to improve their performance if they aim to climb the standings.

The team did not make any notable signings during the transfer window, and the departures of Elias Mastokangas and Olli Jakonen are not expected to have a significant impact on the team's dynamics. As they approach their upcoming match, Inter Turku will need to find a way to turn their scoring opportunities into goals and regain momentum for a more successful second half of the season.

KuPS

Despite being the current leaders of the Veikkausliiga, KuPS have encountered some recent difficulties. Their form has dipped, with only one victory in their last four matches. In their previous game, they suffered a surprising 1-0 home defeat against VPS. Despite being favored to win, KuPS struggled with possession, holding only 43%, and managed just seven shots on goal.

KuPS will have to cope without Christian Tue Jensen, as he is the only notable absence from the squad. Jensen, an attacking midfielder, has made only four appearances this season, so his absence may not have a significant impact on the team's performance.

To strengthen their squad, KuPS have brought in Jake Jervis from East Bengal. Jervis, a right winger, had a successful stint with SJK before moving to India. With his experience and abilities, he could prove to be a valuable addition to the KuPS team for the remainder of the season.

As KuPS aims to maintain their position at the top of the league, they will need to address their recent struggles and find their winning form once again. The signing of Jake Jervis could provide a boost to their attacking options and help them regain their winning momentum.

Inter Turku - Eetu Huuhtanen, Rodrigo Arciero, Noah Nurmi, Mikael Almen, Valentin Purosalo, Petteri Forsell, Bismark Ampofo, Tommi Jyry, Christian Legbo, Iiro Jarvinen, Darren Smith.
