HJK Helsinki vs SJK Match Preview, Predictions, Betting Advice and Betting Tips: Expect Few Goals in a Tough Game
Match Preview
This is the biggest game in the Finnish Veikkausliiga. HJK Helsinki are the traditional top team, while SJK are the new force thanks to huge investments in recent years. They are expected to fight for the title this season, having lost to Mariehamn in 2016. Therefore, this can be considered the game of the season in our HJK Helsinki vs SJK preview.
Both teams are rather disappointing so far, though. HJK Helsinki are top, but they drew too many fixtures and have significant problems scoring. Their last two games ended in goalless draws. SJK are even worse, with just three wins in the first ten matches. They also drew their last two games, and hope not to lose in Helsinki, because that could spell the end of their title challenge. This is a hugely important game, and HJK Helsinki vs SJK betting tips are influenced by that.
