Lahti vs Mariehamn Veikkausliiga Match Preview

With no victory against Lahti in the last five meetings across all competitions, Mariehamn hope to secure a win against the hosts in this second meeting of 2022. Our team previews have more fixture details.

Lahti

Lahti has picked up a good run after suffering three consecutive defeats during which the hosts scored only one goal and conceded ten. In the last three games, Lahti has bagged one clean sheet and went without defeat. This home fixture against Mariehamn should be an opportunity to extend the good run. We expect at least a draw from the hosts, albeit, they are more likely to win the clash. They need the three points to avoid relegation round even though it looks increasingly impossible with a few matches to go.

Mariehamn

Mariehamn failed to defeat Lahti at home in the reverse game that ended 0-0. The visitors have lost four of their last 5 games, a performance that is worrisome, especially ahead of this league clash that will shape the race to Championship round. Both teams currently occupy 11^th and 10^th places respectively hence bound to participate in the relegation round with only three games left to play.
