What to expect

We expect about 1.7 goals from HJK and 1.5 from KuPS, so HJK come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 3.2 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.

HJK come into this on three straight wins. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.7-1.5), and we make both teams to score about 58%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.

We put the chance of that landing at about 58 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.60, which works out at about 63 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓HJK are unbeaten in their last five — three wins and two draws.
✓KuPS have won two of their last five.
✓Three of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in two of the last five meetings.
