Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals
Four of the last five meetings between these two sides have gone Over 2.5 Goals. HJK Helsinki has been impressive during that course by smashing 19 goals in front of the home crowd. Helsinki has also found the back of the net 11 times in the last five league outings at Bolt Arena. KTP has managed an average of one goal per game in the last four matches in Soumen Cup and Veikkausliiga. Given the current scenario, we expect this game to feature a total of Over 2.5 Goals.
Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes
KTP has found the back of the net in four consecutive games ahead of this fixture. Kotka has also helped three BTTS outcomes in the previous five H2H meetings with HJK at Bolt Arena. Helsinki has also been on the scoring side in four of the recent five games in front of the home crowd. The home side of this game have also just two clean sheets in the previous eight competitions. Hence, we can expect to see goals from both ends of the field in this game.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-1 to HJK
HJK’s front line has been excellent against KTP by scoring multiple goals in all of the previous five meetings at Bolt Arena. Defensively, Helsinki has also rattled the net more than once in three of the recent five league outings in front of the home crowd. On the other hand, KTP has found the back of the net just once in each of the recent four games. Considering these facts, we predict a 2-1 lead in favour of HJK to claim all three points in this game.
HJK vs Kotka: Form, Recent Games, and News
HJK Preview
HJK were trailing by one goal against Lahti after just the third minute of the game by conceding a goal to Julius Tauriainen. However, Bujan Radulovi secured Helsinki from defeat by amassing a brace in the second half, helping three points with a 1-2 lead. Valterri Morren’s absence due to a back injury slightly dented HJK’s preparation for the next game.
Kotka Preview
KTP dropped their winning streak against Inter Turku in the last game in Veikkausliiga with a 2-1 defeat. Matias Paavola scored the first goal for KTP in the 70th minute but they couldn’t beat a two-goal deficit, conceding goals to Inter’s Darre Smith and Maikael Almen within 55 minutes. Head coach Jussi Leppalahti will be happy to have a clean bill of health to mount a comeback in the league on Sunday.
