Ilves vs TPS: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from "Ratina" finished in the top three last season. However, their position has significantly weakened this year. Half of their matches end in defeat—making it difficult to hope for success in such circumstances. In the previous round, they suffered a heavy 0-5 loss to Lahti.
The team from Turku spent five years in the second division, but managed to return at the end of 2025, albeit through the play-offs. They've been active in collecting points since then, winning more often than losing. In the previous round, they secured a 1-0 home victory against VPS.
The Tampere side scores an average of 1.3 goals per game, but concedes even more—2.1 on average. For the top-tier newcomer, the stats are 1.22 goals scored and only 0.89 conceded per match.
