Mariehamn vs HJK: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from the Åland Islands was among the worst last season, but still managed to finish a decent eighth in the relegation group. This season, they have been unable to win and entered the summer at the bottom of the table. In the summer, they lost to both Gnistan and Oulu.
The capital's giants finished only fifth last season. They have not shown significant improvement this year, winning only slightly more frequently than before. In the previous round, they drew 3-3 with the leaders, Inter Turku.
The islanders have rightly become the underdogs—scoring only 0.55 goals per game while conceding three times as many, 1.73. HJK from Helsinki, on the other hand, scores 1.75 goals per game and concedes much less, just 1.08 per match.
