What to expect

We expect about 1.8 goals from Lahti and 0.7 from Mariehamn, so Lahti come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.5 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Lahti come into this on two straight wins. Mariehamn 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: Lahti to win. Lahti are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.8-0.7), and we make them about 61% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 59 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.42, which works out at about 70 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
Lahti have won three of their last five.
Mariehamn have won three 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.

One thing to watch

A red card, a penalty or a smash-and-grab is all it takes for Mariehamn to spoil this. The price is shorter than our own read of about 61%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
