A 0-0 draw against VPS will be viewed as a positive outcome for FF Jaro and a valuable point into the bargain.  

While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 4, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process.  They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.  

A home win for FF Jaro is just a distant memory, having not won at Pietarsaaren keskuskenttä in 7 games.

Grabbing a valuable league point from their recent 2-2 draw against SJK will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for IF Gnistan.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 9 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 9, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.  

They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.  

Joakim Latonen will be hoping to create problems for FF Jaro in this one, having scored 4 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for IF Gnistan.
