Honka KTP betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

As we can see, this match involves two teams that fight on opposite sides of the leaderboard, but have well-established systems and should play a balanced confrontation. Coming from a victory away from home in a direct confrontation at the top of the leaderboard, Honka wants to win again at home to settle in 4th place in the Veikkausliiga. On the other hand, however, coming from a 2-0 defeat at home to SJK (3rd), KTP is looking for at least a draw away from home in this round to stay out of the relegation risk zone. Therefore, we believe that betting to have “Under 3.5 goals” is the best option in this match, not least because there were 3 or less goals in 8 of the 9 rounds played by Honka and in 6 of the 8 played by KTP in this Veikkausliiga.

Preview
Honka and KTP face at Tapiolan Urheilupuisto, in a match for the 8th round of the Veikkausliiga. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 loss in the last 3 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 16‑10‑2021, and ended in a (2‑0) win by KTP.

Analysis Honka

The home team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 9 points won, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against KuPS, by (0‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Oulu, by (1‑3). For the league, Honka won 4 points out of 12 possible points, after 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 4 home matches. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 2 of the last 9 matches for the Veikkausliiga, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 1 of those 2 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the match in all of them. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 9 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 1.

FC Honka comes for this round of Veikkausliiga 2023 motivated by having won again in the last round, away from their dominions and facing an opponent at the top of the leaderboard. After having suffered 2 consecutive defeats at home (to the leader, KuPS, and to Haka, 6th place), Honka came under pressure to beat AC Oulu (then 4th place) away from home in the last round, but showed extreme strength and mental balance to triumph 3-1 in the head-to-head and, thus, assume the 4th position of Veikkausliiga 2023. However, having one game more than AC Oulu (now 5th place) and also that Haka (6th ), we can say that Honka is still in an uncomfortable situation on the leaderboard, not least because the distance to SJK (3rd) is 5 points. It is worth remembering that last year the team even led the Veikkausliiga and finished in 3rd place, in order to guarantee a place in the 2023/24 UEFA Conference League qualifiers.

Confirmed Lineup: Maksim Rudakov, Elias Äijälä, Dario Naamo, Edmund Arko-Mensah, Aldayr Hernández Basanta, Roman Eremenko, Ville Koski, Florian Krebs, Kevin Jansen, Clésio, J. Alegría Arango.

Analysis KTP

The away team is currently in the 8th position of the league, with 6 points won, after 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Lahti, by (0‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against SJK, by (0‑2). In the last 10 away matches KTP has won 4, tied 2 and lost 4. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had problems scoring first, since they have only opened up the score once in the last 8 matches for the Veikkausliiga. In 8 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

KTP Kotka comes for this round of Veikkausliiga 2023 shaken by having lost again at home and, thus, having seen the unbeaten run of 3 matches that the team had sustained end, one of their best sequences so far in the season. After having achieved their first victory in the competition, back in the 3rd round (playing at home against Mariehamn, penultimate placed), KTP suffered two consecutive defeats away from their domains in direct confrontations in the bottom half of the leaderboard. Then, when least expected, the team started a draw at home with HJK (current champion and now vice-leader) and seemed to have found its best balance, not least because, in the sequence, it drew away from home with Lahti (8th ) and thrashed MyPa by 14-0 away from home for the fourth round of the Finnish Cup. However, coming from a defeat at home to SJK (3rd), KTP will hardly be able to snatch points from Honka (4th) playing away from home in this round.

Confirmed Lineup: Rasmus Leislahti, Johannes Laaksonen, Damiano Pecile, Lassi Nurmos, Valtteri Vesiaho, Daan Klinkenberg, Michael Ogungbaro, Mika, Joni Makela, Willis Alvés Furtado, Georgios Manthatis.
Coach: A. Arbeiter.
