Recap
Ilves-Kissat have suffered from injuries, illnesses and suspensions. Due to these reasons Miettinen (12/0 first goalkeeper), Paukkeri (12/1), Selin (10/0), Shala (6/1), Al-Fatli (3/0), and Ositashvili (1/0) are out of the squad, while Kovaqi (14/2), Ben (13/11 top scorer), Lindholm (12/1), and Naykki (9/1) are doubtful. They played the previous match with GrIFK with only 3 substitutions, and in the last 3 rounds, they lost two times and had one draw. Jazz Pori has invested heavily this year and their team is full of foreign players with quality from higher leagues like Manga (ex-Olympiakos Athens player), Brazilian Layon, Nigerian Etok, and New Zealand defender Stroud. They are in a good mood, having beaten the teams in the previous four matches with a goal difference of 17-1, and are the best away team in the league.
