Lahti Double Chance

Lahti have been putting plenty of points on the board in recent weeks and the Black Drones haven’t tasted defeat in seven straight Veikkausliiga fixtures. HIFK meanwhile, have dropped points in three of their last four assignments on home soil, and confidence in their ranks will undoubtedly be at a low ebb. Lahti can take full advantage and they look superb value in the double chance market as a result.

Under 2.5 Goals

A toothless looking HIFK have managed to score just a single goal in their last 360 minutes of Finnish top-flight football and each of their last five Veikkausliiga fixtures have produced under 2.5 goals. Lahti have been far from prolific themselves this term, notching just 1.5 times per game on average, so expect a low-scoring tussle at the Bolt Arena. The teams drew 0-0 when they last faced off in June and a similar outcome looks possible this week.

Half-Time Result: Draw

Lahti’s results have been steadily improving as the campaign has progressed, though it’s worth noting that they have yet to establish a first-half lead on the road. Lahti went in all square in three of their four away tests and were trailing at the break in the other. That record makes the half time draw market an appealing price for Monday’s fixture.

HIFK vs Lahti: Match Preview

HIFK

Spanish coach Joaquín Gómez had plenty to crow about in the opening exchanges of the new Veikkausliiga campaign, however, HIFK’s performances have started to slide more recently. The Reds have slipped down to seventh spot following an underwhelming run of just two wins in six games and their drab 0-0 draw at lowly Mariehamn last time out was the third fixture in a row where HIFK failed to find the net.

Lahti

A last gasp spot-kick from leading scorer Jasin-Amin Assehnoun earned Lahti three points and an impressive comeback victory against SJK last week – a result that catapulted the Black Drones into contention for a place in the top three. Manager Ilir Zeneli will be targeting further improvement however, especially on the road where Lahti have won only once in four attempts.
