Match Preview
In this Veikkausliiga clash, Jaro hosts Ilves at Jakobstads Centralplan on Sunday, 20 July. Jaro's recent form has been inconsistent, managing two wins in their last five matches, while Ilves has shown a stronger performance with three wins in the same period. Historically, Jaro has had the upper hand in their last ten encounters, winning four times, but Ilves' current form suggests they may be poised to break that trend.
One key angle to consider is the attacking prowess of Ilves, who have scored in their last four matches. With odds of 1.66 for both teams to score (BTTS), this could be a promising bet, especially given that the last five meetings between these sides have seen both teams find the net on two occasions. Jaro will need to tighten their defence if they hope to secure points at home, while Ilves will look to exploit any defensive lapses. Overall, this matchup promises to be competitive, with both sides eager to secure valuable points.
