Head-to-head statistics Seinajoen - Lahti
Seinajoen Team Overview
SIK from Seinäjoki have been playing in the Veikkausliiga since 2014, and last season they reached the championship group. They currently sit tenth with 18 points. The manager has not been touched: Jarkko Wiss has been in place since the first round, while the club keeps rotating the squad. In the summer, SIK let five players go and signed eight. On 3 August, the updated SIK beat HJK 3:0, but that win did not turn into a breakthrough. In the two following rounds, the hosts picked up just one point. Kasper Paananen, last year's top scorer in the league, has not left. The only problem is that since April he has just four goals. Things are no better in defence: SIK have conceded in 13 of their last 14 league matches.

Going forward they are more modest: 23 goals in the season. In the previous round Lahti lost at home to KuPS, and before that they took a point away in Turku.

Editor's Pick
Away from home, Lahti have scored more than one goal in just 1 of their last 9 Veikkausliiga matches. They don't concede much on the road either: in five of their last away matches, Lahti have seen fewer than three goals. It's not just about away games - fewer than four goals have been scored in Lahti's matches ten times in a row. The visitors will most likely get one goal. At home, SJK have conceded in 7 of their last 8 matches across all competitions. But we don't expect more than one goal from the visitors either. The bet is Lahti individual total under 1.5. Predicted score - 1:1.
