Betting suggestion:
HJK, one of the country's most traditional clubs, are experiencing a rare moment of pressure and need to react immediately if they want to fight at the top of the table and keep their aspirations of qualifying for continental competitions alive. VPS, on the other hand, have their sights set on an increasingly successful season, aiming to establish themselves in the upper echelons of the league, gain regularity and present themselves as contenders for at least the decisive stages of the tournament. Given recent form, the number of goals conceded by both teams and VPS's attacking stance contrasting with HJK's need to get a result, we believe that this game is likely to be “over 2.5 goals”. Both teams have frequent records of busy matches and their defensive systems have been showing vulnerabilities, making the scenario ripe for a duel with at least three goals on the scoreboard.

Preview
HJK and VPS meet at Töölön Pallokenttä, in a match for the 4th round of the Veikkausliiga. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the home team, since they have a record of 5 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 9 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 20‑09‑2024, and ended in a draw by (1‑1). The home advantage may play an important role in this match , since HJK presents significant differences between home and away results.
Analysis HJK
The home team is currently in the 12th position of the league, with no points won yet, after 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against SJK, by (1‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Gnistan, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 16 conceded. HJK has won 1, tied 3 and lost 6 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in all of the last 10 matches. This is a team that has had problems scoring first, since they have only opened up the score once in the last 11 matches. In 11 matches, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have never been able to turn the score around.
HJK start this Veikkausliiga match hoping to find a new direction after a turbulent start, currently in 11th place with no points from their opening three games. The team has traditionally had a solid defensive tactical set-up, but in recent games it has shown itself to be fragile, mainly due to the excessive amount of space allowed and the lack of effectiveness in attacking transitions. The pattern of play under the coach's command preserves compact lines, with an attempt to get forward quickly, but it is clear that it is difficult to get back into the game and make clear plays, as well as a lack of precision when it comes to finishing. The expectation for the match is for a careful approach, with HJK looking for safety on their own pitch first, trying to end the losing streak and win their first points in the competition, a crucial factor in regaining the squad's confidence and morale in front of their fans.

Analysis VPS
The away team is currently in the 6th position of the league, with 4 points won, after 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against KTP, by (2‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Inter Turku, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 30 goals scored and 32 conceded; against 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 25 goals scored and 26 conceded. In the last 10 away matches VPS has won 5, tied 3 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 19 of the last 22 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have only turned the score around in 1.
VPS, on the other hand, arrive on the back of the better form of the two teams, occupying 6th place after three rounds, with four points and a more consistent performance. Their tactical approach favors a balance between defense and attack, alternating between a possession approach in midfield and quick transitions, especially down the flanks. The team has managed to alternate good defensive application with the ability to create dangerous moves and take advantage of opportunities, although it also shows inconsistencies and has already conceded seven goals in the league. The likely strategy will be to maintain the attacking impetus, taking advantage of the opponent's instability, but without giving up defensive solidity when necessary. VPS have ambitions to go even higher in the Veikkausliiga, aiming for an even better position and consolidating their progress round by round.
