HIFK Lahti betting prediction

Betting suggestion:

As we noted, the home team have a regular attack, where they can score goals in almost every game they play, but have conceded goals in all the last 5 games they have played, having a very unstable and defensive defensive sector. On the other hand, the visiting team scored goals in 5 of the last 6 away games, having scored an expressive 16 goals in that period, which makes us believe that the visiting team will be very offensive and at some point in the game will score, after all they are a team that usually play up away from home. In view of this information, we believe that the visiting team will score at least 1 goal in the match.

Preview

HIFK and Lahti meet at Sonera Stadium, in a match for the 4^th round of the Veikkausliiga. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium favours the away team, since in the last 4 head‑to‑heads they won 2 and tied 2. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Veikkausliiga, on 15‑04‑2019, Lahti won by (0‑1). Josu Currais (60' ) scored the only goal of the match. Lahti registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis HIFK

The home team is currently in the 6^th position of the league, with 3 points won, after 1 win and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against KuPS, by (0‑3). In the last match, they won in an away match against RoPS, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. HIFK has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. 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. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 10 of the last 11 have ended with Over 1,5 goals.

HIFK are one of the oldest teams in Finland, having been founded in 1897, and having won 7 first division titles in the country, but their recent history is not very successful, and their last national first division title was won in 1961, and after that, the club no longer felt the taste of the first division titles, having even fallen to the second division twice recently, having thus won the second division title from Finland in 2014 and 2018 and being promoted to the top division of Finnish football again.

As we can see, despite being a traditional and victorious club, they have a present far below their history, having been having difficulties in the competitions they play, including in the current first division, where in 2 games, they suffered a defeat and recorded a victory. Their performance is very unstable, in the last 10 games, they registered the victory in only 2, coincidentally, the 2 were away from home. At home the performance have been terrible, having in the last 5 games, lost in 3 of them and drawn in the other two, but their attack almost always works, having scored in 4 of the 5 games, but conceded goal in all.

We can see then that although the attack works, the defense in the last matches has been a very deficient sector, causing serious problems for the team.

Confirmed Lineup: Arnold Otieno Origi, Jani Bäckman, Tuukka Andberg, Hannu Patronen, Matias Hänninen, Sakari Mikael Mattila, Riku Selander, Moshtagh Yaghoubi, Joel Mattsson, Tiquinho, Sakari Tukiainen.
Coach: M. Paatelainen.

Analysis Lahti

The away team is currently in the 10^th position of the league, with 1 point won, after 1 draw and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against HJK, by (0‑4). In the last match, they tied in a home match against SJK, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 22 conceded; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 23 conceded. Their last away match was for the Suomen Cup and ended in a loss by (5‑0) against Inter Turku. In the last 10 away matches Lahti has won 6, tied 1 and lost 3.

Lahti are a very recent team in football, having been founded in 1996, and premiered in 1997 in the Finnish second division, and in 1998 they won the title and gained access to the first division of Finland. However, in 2010 the team were relegated again, and in the following year they would be champion again and would rise again to the Finnish first division, where they occupies their place until today.

Their recent history in the competition shows about a sequence of 3 games without victories, being 2 defeats by expressive numbers, and 1 goalless draw, however it can be taken into account that Lahti faced in these suffered victories, two of the strongest teams of the competition, fact which should be well observed, after all, if we look at a more general history, the campaign of the last 11 games is not bad, with the visiting team having recorded 6 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses.

If we look only at the away matches, this index still improves, since in the last 6 away matches, Lahti won nothing more, nothing less than 5 wins, having scored an incredible 16 goals, an average of 2.6 goals per away game, which demonstrates that even playing away, they are an aggressive team that always seek the goal, their attack being a very strong weapon.

Confirmed Lineup: Patrick Rakovsky, Kari Arkivuo, Timi Lahti, Mikko Viitikko, Jean Coubronne, Akoete Eninful, Matti Klinga, Jasin-Amin Assehnoun, Mikko Kuningas, Dimitry Imbongo Boele, Vahid Hambo.
Coach: M. Mannila.
