HJK defeated KTP 4-0 in their last game to book a place in the round as first team in Group, edging Inter Turku to second with just goal difference. Hassane Bande scored the first goal of the game in the 49th minute after Teemu Puki had missed a penalty in the 9th minute to put the team ahead. He later redeemed his image by scoring two goals in the 63rd and 65th minute of the game before Ozan Kokcu made it 4-0. In the group stage, HJK secured four wins and lost one against Haka.
KuPS
KuPS made it to this round after finishing second in Group B with 10 points in 5 games, scoring 10 goals and conceding 6. They defeated Oulu 2-1 in their last game to be able to pick the second slot ahead of VPS that finished with 9 points. They were unbeaten in four of their five games in the group stage, losing only to Ilves.
Expert Betting Tips
Both sides have done a wonderful job to get to this stage, edging out top teams like VPS, SJK and Oulu in the group stage. They relied majorly on their strong attack to execute this, which is why I think both teams will score in this game. However, I have the feeling that if this game didn’t end in a draw in 90 minutes, KuPS would have a better chance to win. They are unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 games against HJK.
Our prediction for this match is for both teams to score for odds of 1.67 at Betway.
Our second prediction is to see more than two goals for odds of 1.94 at 1xbet.
Our third prediction is for KuPS to win or draw at odds of 1.72 at Bet365.
