KuPS continued their fight for a domestic double after defeating SJK via a penalty shootout in the semifinals of the Suomen Cup. They will face Inter Turku in the final next month. Back in the league, they defeated Ilves 1-0 in their last game, with Petteri Pennanen scoring the only goal in the 73rd minute. They are unbeaten in their previous seven league games and have also won 5 of their last six home games. They sit at the top of the table with 41 points in 20 games, scoring 35 goals and conceding 20.
Mariehamn
LLLDL
Mariehamn suffered a 2-1 loss to Gnistan in their last game, despite getting a 1-0 lead in the first 7 minutes. They remain without a win in their previous eight games, losing seven games and playing one draw. They have lost their last four away games. They sit 11th on the table with 17 points in 20 games, scoring 18 and conceding 34. However, Noah Nurmi will miss this game due to an Achilles tendon rupture.
H2H
Both sides have met 20 times since 2017. KuPS won 13, Mariehamn won 3, and 4 ended in draws. The last game between both sides ended 3-1 in favor of KuPS.
Expert Betting Tips
Mariehamn’s performance has been so bad recently, and that form is weak against the league leaders. I expect total dominance from KuPS to keep their league aspiration high. I also expect them to keep a clean sheet.
- Handicap: KuPS -1 for 2.00 odds
- Over 2.5 for 1.75 odds
- BTTS-NO for 1.65 odds
