Oct 5th features a match where KuPS will host Haka in a meeting of these two evenly matched Veikkausliiga teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 6 degrees, which will make playing unpleasant. In their last match, KuPS recorded a 1-3 loss against SJK. Paulo Ricardo scored the first goal for SJK on an own goal in the 7th minute, then Jake Jervis added another in the 36th minute on a feed from Jake Dunwoody. KuPS should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Haka recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Inter Turku. Lee Erwin scored the first goal for Haka in the 69th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Inter Turku was frustrated by Haka’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Haka ended the match with the shutout victory. Haka is on a hot streak lately, with only 2 loss in their last 10 matches.
In their last match on Jul 31st, Haka won by a score of 2 to 1. Elias Mastokangas struck first for Haka in the 49th minute, then Elias Mastokangas added another in the 60th minute.
Haka is fortunate enough to have Lee Erwin in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored four goals. Jānis Ikaunieks and Henri Toivomaki are the top scorers for KuPS in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal.
