The home team are unbeaten in five as we head into our KuPS Kuopio vs RoPS Palloseura betting tips and their recent results have been even better on their own turf – they are on a five game winning run and are unbeaten in front of their own supporters in seven overall. Only new champions HJK and last year’s title winners Mariehamn have better statistics at their own stadium than Marko Rajamäki’s men.
The away outfit have had major troubles on the road all season. Two victories from fourteen on their travels has scuppered their chances of making a real push for the league’s European places, although ironically they are the only team to beat newly crowned champions HJK on their own patch in 2017. Last week’s 2-0 victory over bottom club JJK was their first win in five and Head Coach Juha Malinen will be hoping to build on the momentum from that win on Thursday.
26 year old Nigerian striker Gbolahan Salami is the focus of the first of our KuPS Kuopio vs RoPS Palloseura bets. The nimble attacker has enjoyed a respectable second season in Finnish football, collecting eight goals to add to the fourteen he scored last year. Salami has scored three times in his last three appearance, helping to draw the latest football betting odds into evens for him to strike again on Thursday.
Salami has finished chances in two of his last three outings at home for the Keltamusta. Juha Malinen has only seen his defence keep the opposition out once in twelve away games, so Salami should have plenty of chances to add to his 2017 tally this week. 888Sport swatted aside the competition with their prices in the goal scorer markets. You won’t find more lucrative odds anywhere else.
One standout statistic from this season’s encounters between the clubs analysed in our OddsDigger KuPS Kuopio vs RoPS Palloseura predictions has been the home team’s 100% clean sheet record against their visitors over two matches. If you delve a little deeper, you can see that Malienen’s forwards have failed to grab a goal against the Keltamusta in three of their last give clashes with them.
The second placers have only conceded sixteen times across fourteen games at home in 2017 and with the away team averaging less than a goal per game on the road this season, there is plenty of evidence to support the second of today’s football tips. RoPS have failed to score in four of their last seven attempts all told. The most valuable odds to match our prediction can be found with 10Bet, who come out on top when compared with their rivals.
