Friday 004 Finnish Super League Coops vs Helsinki

Friday 12th round, the third in the league, Coops sits at home, facing Helsinki, the second in the league.

After being second in the league for three consecutive seasons, Coops finally won the championship last season. But after winning the championship, the team's performance immediately declined. Now with one more round of games, it ranked third in the Finnish Super League with 7 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. After last season's top scorer Muzinga and second scorer Diavala played against each other, Kupps was significantly weakened on the offensive end. Now he has only scored 16 goals in the 13 league rounds. Among the six teams that are qualified for the Finnish Super League championship play-off, Kupps scored the least goals. A few days ago, Kupps was dragged into a penalty shootout by a weak team Haka in the Finnish Cup, and the team made great efforts to advance by luck. Coops' form has declined recently, and the Finnish Premier League is in a two-game losing streak, with 1 draw and 4 losses in the last five league games. What's even worse is that Coops conceded 9 goals in 5 games and were all sealed by his opponents. Now they are in a state that can be imagined. In terms of lineup, midfielder Samuel Pasaning was reimbursed for the season, and other core players remained healthy.

The Sanya King season of the Coops League was when Helsinki won three consecutive championships. Helsinki's record fluctuated last season, 11 points behind Kups, who won the championship, and ranked third in Finnish Premier League. Fortunately, Helsinki made a comeback this season, with the team winning 7, drawing 2 and losing 3 in the league. They scored 23 points with their opponents with one game less than Coops, ranking second in the league with their goal difference advantage. Veteran Puki, who returned from the American League, performed well. The 35-year-old striker made 6 goals and 5 assists in 12 appearances in the league. His average of 2.33 goals in the Helsinki League is also the No. 1 firepower of Finnish Super League. The team easily won four away goals last weekend in the Finnish Cup, and remained unbeaten in the last 12 games with 10 wins and 2 draws, with a winning rate of 83.3%. Even in the away game, Helsinki is in the midst of a five-game winning streak away. Their reinforcement this season is to regain the championship. In terms of lineup, Helsinki has no core players absent in this game. It is expected that the team will continue its recent 4231 tactics, and Puki will break out as the center forward.

The two teams have played against each other in the last 10 times, with Kupps winning 5 wins 3 draws and 2 losses. Among them, they have remained unbeaten against Helsinki at home 3 wins and 3 draws. The last time they lost to Helsinki at home was in the 2020 season. In terms of data, Kups was initially given a high-level bonus for the draw, and the market was adjusted to a median bonus of 0.25 goals. For the defending champion, Helsinki, who has mastered his skills at home, is still underestimated, which is enough to express his confidence in the away team. This game is optimistic that Helsinki will at least escape from the away game.
