HJK Helsinki are the best team in Finland, and they dominated the league in recent years with five league titles in the last six season. This season, they are 2nd in the league with 19 points from 10 matches. By their standards, that is not a very good start. But most of their struggles are coming on the road.

HJK Helsinki team news
Coach Toni Koskela spoke to the media after a 0:0 draw with IFK Mariehamn. He said they made many mistakes in the final third of the pitch because IFK Mariehamn defended very deep. Still, he said they created three excellent chances for a goal but were unlucky.
HJK's top goalscorer, Bojan Radulović, missed three games in early May due to injuries, but he played the entire match against IFK Mariehamn and will be ready for this match. He is in excellent form, scoring five goals in the last five games.
A few players missed the previous matches with injuries and could miss the Honka game, too: Lucas Lingman, Pyry Soiri, Aapo Halme, and Maksim Stjopin.

Honka team news
After a 1:0 loss to KTP, coach Vesa Vesara spoke to the media. He said the opponent had done their homework and executed their game plan better than them. He also said they are not playing well enough and have to improve.
Due to injuries, starting left full-back Matias Rale will miss the game. The team's captain and the best right full-back, Henri Aalto, could also miss the game.
A starting midfielder, Jerry Voutilainen, missed the previous six games and will most likely miss the next game too.
