Honka - Inter u. 2.5 goals @ 1.94 (Pinnacle)
Honka have been this season's most reliabl under team: 9/10 of their latest home matches ended under, 14/20 of their latest matches ended under, their homerecord: 5-5-2 13-8. Inter have also been pretty reliable, at least when they have been on the road: record 3-2-7 10-14, 7/10 latest away matches under, 14/20 totally. Honka may be ttacking minded, but they haven't got their attacking to work, Inter play a lot more defending minded away than at home. I must back under at this odds, the stats are simply too overwhelmomg to look away from, and my prediction of how the game will evolve says the same, under my bet.

[8X1]

AC Oulu v HJK Helsinki, an very important game for Oulu, they play quite good at home, only lost 3 games, record 4w-5d-3l, last 6 home game DDLWWD, last game won 1-0 to Jaro (away), it seems Oulu will fight for survival, at least give themselves a chance to playoff. Helsinki, on theory need 1 points to keep on borad. Record 2w-7d-3l, not so good as usual, but it’s important that this record show they are not easy to beat. IMO, both of them are not easy to win, a draw may the most possible results. I will have a try draw 3.40 @ skybet

[8X1]

KooTeePee v Tampere

Tampere is the Champion this season, they are more better than KooTeePee. Quite difficult to bet on the game. Any one know some news about this game? I will have a try KooTeePee0,+0.5 1.80 @ Bet365, the host have more motivation to fight, they never lack of attact at home.

[8X1]

VPS Vaasa v Viikingit Helsinki

Well, I found Viikingit is also from Helsinki when I post this message. Good news, once we know the relationship between HJK and Viikingit, the two games will be more easy to guess. Normally, derby teams always do not have a good relationship, is this also workalbe on Viikingit and HJK?

Let's invite G:G to give us some information on this two derby city.

[8X1]

Lahti v Mypa

Two lost motivation teams. Lahti won Liiga cup, it's a nice season for them I think, and Mypa lost their place for uefa cup, it's not a good result for them. Lahti will play the last home game very relax, Mypa lose their aim in despair, surely will hard to play on a Champion's home pitch.

Lahti 2.50 @ stan james

[8X1]

G:G , when will you appear?

We are expecting your information, especially the above four games.

Come on, man!

[8X1]

seems everybody interesting in CL games tonight!

Somebody here?

KooTeePee -Tampere: Tampere will rest some players, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing, the benchplayers may be more motivated. KooTeePee needs points, but main qquestion for me is how hrd Tampere will try. If Tampere are motivated they will win this one, no bet for me.

Lahti - Mypa:No motivation on either side, tough match to predict, Mypa usually do well vs Lahti, 4-1-0 last five. Same here, no bet, to many questions.

VPS - Viikingit: VPS need one point to be sure, Viikingit needs points too, they are in a worse position, I don't think that the "Helsinki"-factor has any significanse at all to be honest, not much history between HJK and Viikingit. Close match, I can't decide for a winner.

Oulu - HJK: Motivation of course on Oulu's side, but I guess that the players in HJK will have to show something at some point, to be sure of staying in the team next season too. Draw may be a good idea, just from checking stats.

I'm not G:G and he surely may explain much more but let me tell you something;

Even if the relationship is terrible between two teams and the supporters, board members are more professional. Having another team from the same city is always good for both teams. In this case, HJK and Viikingit, i can not say these two are from the same city, or that these two have possitive effect on eachother.
HJK is from another world. Many supporters. People like soccer. They play every season for the title. have 100 years behind...
VIIKINGIT is also from Helsinki but from Eastern. Area named Vuosaari. Many foreigners so not many supporters. It's their first season in Veikkausliiga and it looks like to be their last.

Oulu 2-0 HJK Helsinki
About Oulu - HJK can i say that, HJK to be motivated for Viikingit is just a joke. HJK is in a terrible run in the last 10 rounds. What should change them? Beside this, TAMU won the league last week. In the Century season for HJK, Tampere United won the title. It was sure that HJK would not win it and also looking sure that HJK will win it, still was it not sure mathematically but with last rounds results, TamU the champion.
HJK to win a match in the next round after TamU wins the title? No, i can not say that. Oulu to beat HJK today, if not 0-0.
Pick: Oulu @2.85 - Admiral - 4/10

Last round ended with 7/7 unders, 11/12 latest have ended under...I hope this trend continues...

FC Haka - Mariehamn under 2.5 goals @ 2.04 (Canbet)
Two teams with opposite formcurves, Haka without a win last four, Mariehamn unbeaten their last 11 matches. Both teams often participate in lowscoring matches, 4/5 out of Mariehamns latest ended under, 3/5 for Haka, those three their latest three matches, all ended 1-1. Haka are very solid at home, have only allowed eight goals in 12 games while they have scored 20. Haka's goalscoring have slowed down now, four goals scored their last four matches, nine goals in their last ten matches. They still dont allow many. Mariehamn's awayrecord: 4-5-3 17-15 shows that they can score, but that's mainly vs teams from the lower half of the table, when I look at the matches they have played vs teams from the upper half I find that they have scored five goals in ten matches. This is imo another close matchup were I see many angles pointing towards under.

VPS - Viikingit under 2.5 goals @ 1.93 (Betfair)
VPS at home: 4-6-2 13-8, they have failed to score their last two matches, allowed one, when they lost vs today's opponant, 0-1 away. Viikingit away: 2-4-6 9-18 a record that shows that they don't get totally overrun when playing away, it's mainly at home their defence have been leaking, in fact eigth of of their latest ten away matches ended under, the two that ended over was vs Mariehamn, the team with the best form in the leauge, and 3d placed TPS. This shows that Viikingit are very able to play close matches vs most of the teams in the league, and VPS are not a team with the attacking power like TPS have or the form that IFK have. Viikingit are in a very difficult position, ahead of Oulu and relegation thanks to a two goals better goaldifference, and two points behind Jaro at 12th place, the 13th place means that Viikingit will have to qualify to stay in the league. I doubt that Viikingit will attack more than usual despite this, it's a lot more likely that they keep their usual style of playing away: safe, few mistakes and counterattacking.

The Insider: good info, nothing to add, you don't need help from me with this subject.

GL today everyone.

Oh, one last thing: As far as I know 1st placed will play CL qualifiers, 2nd placed Uefa Cup qualifiers and 3d place Intertoto.

[allthethings]

Well, this is the type of thing you do when you just don't give a shit anymore. Finland Veikkausliga in its last two games of the season, today and Sunday. The league has had two rounds in a row now with almost all unders--11 of 12 at the moment. For that reason, all the lines today are even money. So I'm taking them all, hoping four of seven games get there. Five would be even better. Late in the year most of these teams have nothing to play for, and often this means defense suffers, tactics go out the window, and young players getting their shot try to pretend they're Brazilian. So:

Soccer - FC Lahti/MyPa - total Over 2½ (-102)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

Soccer - VPS/Viikingit - total Over 2½ (+104)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

Soccer - FC TPS/FF Jaro - total Over 3 (+116)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

Soccer - FC Honka/Inter Turku - total Over 2½ (+100)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

Soccer - Haka/IFK Mariehamn - total Over 2½ (-110)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:15am [pending]

Soccer - Oulu/HJK - total Over 2½ (+100)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

Soccer - Koo TeePee/Tampere United - total Over 2½ (+102)
for the regulation time held on Oct 24 at 10:30am [pending]

With any luck the bells will ring like crazy on my computer...BOL

[allthethings]

Finished 3-4...not sure why TPS couldn't score a goal with a man advantage for 55 minutes, but there you have it...
