Our Prediction for HJK vs Haka
The club from the country's capital has recently lost its status as leader. While in the regular part of last season they were just one point behind leaders KuPS, in the end they also fell well behind Ilves. Haka from Valkeakoski finished only sixth, even though they were ahead of VPS in this group in the early stages.
In 2025, the ambitious side from Helsinki had a slow start. But towards the end of spring, they managed to put together a string of wins, which allowed them to close the gap to the leaders. The only goalless draw was against KuPS. Against Oulu, they claimed a confident 4-0 win. Andy Smith’s team started with a couple of wins in the first three rounds but then won only on the last day of spring, finishing with a 2-1 home victory over VPS. The match against Inter Turku ended 1-1 after exchanging goals.
Pukki and company have solid stats. They average 2.27 goals scored and 0.91 conceded per match. The visitors, meanwhile, have a negative ratio: 1.3 scored to 1.5 conceded on average.
