IFK Mariehamn, Recent FormThe IFK Mariehamn squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Ilves, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. During that encounter they had 48% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 3 of their 9 shots on goal.
They have bagged 8 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 12 times in that period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Wiklöf Holding Arena.
With 5 defeats in their last 6 outings, they will be looking for a significant change in their current run of form. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 7 of the first 12 league games at Wiklöf Holding Arena.
Lahti, Recent FormThe 2-0 away defeat to Haka will not have sat easily with the Lahti squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 22 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Haka's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
He will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 9 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Lahti recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Anouar El Moukhantir will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Lahti.
It was one to forget for Lahti last time they met IFK Mariehamn in the league, falling to a 0-2 defeat.
Mariehamn have scored in each of their last 4 league meetings with Mustat kuhnurit. Mariehamn have managed to keep a clean sheet against Lahti in 4 of their previous 5 meetings.
With no real injury worries, Mariehamn manager Jimmy Wargh will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Lahti manager Toni Lindberg has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
