SJK HJK betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a match that involves two teams fighting for a common goal: to maintain their unbeaten record. The home team hasn't lost in their territory this season and is undefeated in Veikkausliiga, with two draws and a victory in three rounds. The visiting team, in turn, in addition to leading the championship with three wins and a draw in the four rounds they played, still hasn't tasted defeat in 2021. Without conceding goals for four matches, the visiting team is considered as favorite for win and stay at the top of the leaderboard. However, taking into account that the home team has a well balanced team, the match will be competitive and with few goals. Therefore, the market must be favorable for “under 3.5 goals” in this match.

Preview
SJK and HJK face at OmaSP Stadion, in a match for the 8th round of the Veikkausliiga. In 11 head‑to‑heads in the last 3 years, the away team won 9 and tied 2. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 15‑10‑2020, and ended in a (1‑2) win by HJK. SJK registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.

Analysis SJK

After 1 win and 2 draws, the home team is in the 6th position, havinf won 5 points so far. In the last match, they have won in an away match against Oulu by (0‑2), after in the previous match they have tied (1‑1) at home, against HIFK. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 24 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 10 home matches SJK has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches.

The home team arrives for this match with the expectation of maintaining the invincibility that it displayed in the first three rounds of this Veikkausliiga, although they will face the leader and current champion. After a frustrating season, but that was enough for Seinäjoen JK to remain in the Finnish football elite, this team started 2021 in a very promising way: they went through a complicated group in the Finnish Cup, won in the play-offs and just stopped in the quarterfinals, when the team lost in overtime, 1-0, to Inter Turku (current runner-up of Veikkausliiga). Now, in three rounds played by Veikkausliiga 21, SJK remains unbeaten, with two draws and a victory, which was won in the last match, away from home, against AC Oulu (Finnish second division champion last year). This is a team that has a good balance between offense and defense. Thus, even if they face the title favorite in this match, the home team has a good chance of coming out of the field with at least one point and, thus, maintaining the unbeaten record in their territory.

Confirmed Lineup: Jesse Öst, Nikko Boxall, Rodrigo Arciero, Ville Tikkanen, Murilo, Cristian Valencia Cifuentes, Jude Arthur, Nooa Laine, Joonas Lepistö, Emmanuel Ledesma, Jake Jervis.
Coach: J. Honkavaara.

Analysis HJK

The away team is currently in the 1st position of the league, with 10 points won, after 3 wins and 1 draw. In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against Ilves, by (0‑3). In the last match, they won in a home match against Lahti, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in away matches, with 31 goals scored and 9 conceded; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 38 goals scored and 9 conceded. In the last 10 away matches HJK has won 6, tied 3 and lost 1. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 1 of the last 4 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition.

The visiting team arrives for this match unbeaten and motivated to add three more points and remain firm at the top of the leaderboard, in search of the second consecutive title from Veikkausliiga. Current and greatest champion of the main Finnish club competition, Helsinki JK is still undefeated in 2021: in ten matches played so far, they won seven and drew three, having scored an incredible 25 goals (average of 2.5 per match) and conceded only five (average of 0.5 per match). In Veikkausliiga, with three wins and a draw in four rounds played, Helsinki has ten points and boasts the isolated leadership of the competition. Not even the recent loss to KuPS, on penalties (after a goalless draw in regular time), in the Finnish Cup final, was able to discourage the biggest national champion. Thus, even if they play as a visitor in this match, against a team that has not yet lost in this Veikkausliiga, Helsinki is considered a broad favorite to grab the three points and continue at the top of the leaderboard.

Confirmed Lineup: Hugo Keto, Luis Murillo, Valtteri Moren, Miro Tenho, Daniel O'Shaughnessy, Lucas Lingman, Atomu Tanaka, Riku Riski, Roope Riski, David Browne, Filip Valenčič.
Coach: O. Virta.
