Ilves host VPS at Tammela Stadion, Tampere on Saturday, Aug 22 at 4:00 PM in the Veikkausliiga.
Ilves come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). VPS, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
History strongly favours Ilves here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against VPS, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Ilves won 2–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Ilves a slight edge, but VPS are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
