Today two top Finnish clubs meet, although Ilves have not had the most successful start to the season (12 points in 7 rounds, already have 3 defeats), but the Lynx have won all their home games so far.
KuPS has become the main favourite in the championship race in recent years, the team is the reigning national champion, having just beaten Ilves in the race by 2 points last season. The new season has started very well - 22 points out of a possible 24 in 8 rounds. KuPS has not conceded many goals so far, but the team has never managed to keep their gates intact in away games.
Nominally, KuPS looks the favourite today, but we do not think that Ilves will allow themselves to leave the home field without a goal to their principal rival.
Prediction: both teams to score. We recommend the “BTTS - Yes” bet, odds 1.57
