The odds are well in line with the local Finnish bookmaker, who do know all the injury and squad information by detail straight from the clubs, and always up to date as it is in their contract. They are after all the name sponsor of the league, Veikkaus!

KuPS have not been expectedly good this season. A lot of their preseason was wasted because of covid, and recently they have been suffering from injuries. Still they do top the league by a 6-1-0 saldo, but it is remarkable that they have suffered to win the games and the margins have been small.

However today AC Oulu have some very serious absentees which are not in the odds yet in my opinion. Their contrtoversial - but without a doubt their best player - creative midfielder Yaghoubi is suspended, starters Kallinen and Salanovic are injured, and their best goal scorer Lopez did injure himself in the head last time and is unlikely to be fully fit. There is very little depth and class and in the Oulu side, and they are one of the main candidates for the relegation.

Oulu miss attacking players and KuPS are defensively very strong, so there is all the reason to belive in something like 0-1,2 in the end, and the -1.5 handicap is an interesting choice.

Sorry that I have been rather quiet recently, I just did move permanently to Spain and there has been so much to do, and there still is. In the near future there will a lot more information abouf Finnish and Swedish leagues. Have a nice day!
