Our prediction for this Finland Veikkausliiga match:
KuPS will be aiming to overtake Inter Turku in top position when they take on Gnistan on Tuesday afternoon. The Yellow-Blacks desperate needed a win against HJK and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to the negative trend. As a result, the bookies see KuPS as hot favourites to win the midweek clash. Midfielder Samuel Pasanen remains in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home side.
Gnistan, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back draws with VPS and Inter Turku. Jussi Leppalahti’s troops, though, were outplayed by KuPS in each of the previous two meetings at Vare Areena, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered. As for the visiting side, Marcelo Costa continues to miss out with a knee problem, while Oliver Pettersson is pushing for a start.
