KuPS continue their title defence as they travel to AC Oulu for a Friday night Finnish Veikkausliiga fixture. 

The visitors are beginning to build some momentum in the last few weeks and have also shown some quality in their travels. They should get the better of the hosts, who often find things difficult in this fixture. 

AC Oulu Form


AC Oulu come into this fixture off the back of a 2-1 home victory over VPS in their previous Veikkausliiga fixture. They fought back from two goals down with Justin Rennicks netting a brace to earn them the win.
 
That was a vital win for AC Oulu, who had been winless in their previous six matches and remain rooted to the foot of the table. Mikko Isokangas’ team are also winless in five of their last six home matches in the league, suffering four defeats in that run.

One of the issues for AC Oulu is a vulnerable backline, having failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last 10 matches across all competitions. They often attempt to balance things out going forward and have scored in seven matches in that run while six of the last seven fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals. 

KuPS Form


KuPS are also coming off a victory as they thrashed Gnistan 6-2 last time out in the Veikkausliiga. They fought back from a goal down, with Agon Sadiku netting a hat-trick while Joslyn Luyeye-Lutumba, Petteri Pannanen and Mohamed Toure were also on target.
 
That was the second straight win for KuPS, who are beginning to build some momentum and maintain the pressure on Inter Turku. Jarkko Wiss' team have also done some good work on their travels and are unbeaten in six of their last eight away matches across all competitions, picking up four wins in that run. 

KuPS showed their attacking quality in the win over Gnistan but remain unconvincing at the back having failed to keep a clean sheet in five of their last six matches across all competitions. Five of those six matches have also produced over 2.5 goals. 

Head to Head


KuPS have the superior record in this fixture, claiming 10 wins from the last 12 matches while AC Oulu have picked up just two victories. The visitors claimed a 1-0 home win in the reverse fixture back in April. 

Verdict

Both teams have quality going forward but seem to concede often and could be backed to score here. With six of AC Oulu’s last seven fixtures producing over 2.5 goals, a repeat could be on the cards.

KuPS have won their last two matches and also been victorious in 10 of the last 12 matches against AC Oulu. The champions should claim the upper hand once again.
