Round 6 of Finland’s Veikkausliiga will be held this weekend. There isn’t much to separate the teams in top 4, so expect a lot of thrilling moments in the upcoming fixtures.
This Saturday, Inter Turku host IFK Mariehamn at their Veritas Stadion.
The away side have made a mixed start to their new campaign and they will be aiming to improve their performance. Inter Turku are just 1 point behind the current league leaders and are clearly the favourites in this upcoming encounter.
Two teams who are showing great results lately face each other this week, when HJK Helsinki host KuPS Kuopio at their Telia 5G -areena.
HJK Helsinki currently occupy the 1st spot in the league standing and they will be striving to increase their leadership on top of the table. The away side are undefeated in their last 6 league games, so expect an exciting clash this weekend.
Moving on with yet another interesting encounter from the bottom part of the table, this Saturday TPS Turku travel to face RoPS Rovaniemi.
Both sides are performing quite poorly in the early stages of the new season. The hosts are just two points ahead of their bottom-placed opponents, who have lost their last 6 matches.
In this round of fixtures, Ilves Tampere host HIFK Helsinki at their Tammelan Stadion in a rather tense encounter.
The two teams are separated by just 1 point, as the home side occupy the 6th position, while HIFK Helsinki are situated just one place above their opponents with 9 points to their name. Surely, both sides will be striving qualify for the European tournaments, therefore they need to polish their performance.
