Rovaniemi Preview – Can RoPS break duck at home?
They’re 18 matches into this Finnish top flight season and Thursday evening’s hosts, Rovaniemi, have still yet to register a win at home this term and head into this upcoming clash against Lahti with just one win under their belts so far in what has been a disastrous campaign.
That solitary win came in the shape of a 2-0 win away from home at Haka but other than that, Rovaniemi have managed just two draws and have suffered 15 defeats to date this season and the hosts accordingly sit rock-bottom of the Veikkausliiga as a result.
A home record of 0-2-7 8/18 tells its own story, while the bigger picture shows that Rovaniemi have failed to win any of their last nine matches overall at the Rovaniemen Keskuskenttä, along with losing their last six home matches on the trot, so the signs aren’t good for the hosts on Thursday night.
Lahti Preview – Can Lahti break into top 6?
7th placed Lahti by comparison have enjoyed a more successful season so far than their Thursday night counterparts as they sit on the fringes of the top six of the Veikkausliiga but level on points with 6th placed HIFK prior to these midweek fixtures.
Lahti head into this upcoming clash against the basement dwellers on the back of a 3-1 home win against Mariehamn, so they at least have some positive momentum going into this clash where, if they take all three points, they could find themselves as high as 5th if other results go their way.
Having lost just twice in their last eight matches overall in the Finnish top flight, Lahti look the more consistent and reliable outfit of the two and they’ve lost just once in their last four matches on their travels too.
