Head-to-head statistics Jaro - Seinajoen

Jaro Team Overview
Jens Carlsson was brought to Pietarsaari back in October. Before joining IFK Mariehamn, he had worked with Bodø/Glimt's reserve side and as an assistant at Kalmar. In September, supporters called for his dismissal after Jaro lost to a direct rival in Mariehamn. Chairman Tommy Löfs backed the manager: "We're going with Jens." The club has plenty to lose - Löfs said in the spring that almost half of the budget and turnover comes from league and television money. Even finishing 11th would mean a play-off. Strengthening the attack in the summer proved difficult: Englishman Jonathan Lawson has been waiting for a work permit since mid-summer and has yet to make his debut. Then in August, young forward Rudy Wikström left for Swedish Superettan. At home, Jaro have conceded in 19 of their last 21 Veikkausliiga matches.
