• Competition: Veikkausliiga
• Date: Wednesday, 22nd May 2024

• Venue: Tammelan Stadion (Tampere)

After a very bad last season, when Ilves finished 10th on the table this year, they returned to their usual level, so Joonas Rantanen's team is currently with only three points fewer than the league leader, VPS. Despite a sluggish start with only one point in the first three matches, they have since embarked on an impressive winning streak, securing victory in four consecutive games. In the previous game, Ilves won 5-0 at home against Haka. After another victory, Ilves' confidence will be sky-high ahead of the game against Inter Turku. 

Inter Turku seems much weaker than last season when they finished 6th on the table. Vesa Vasara's team started 2024 with only five points from the first seven matches, so only AC Oulu and Ekenas are worse than them so far. Inter Turku lost the last three league games in a row. In the previous round, they lost 3-1 on the road against SJK. Guests scored already in the fourth minute, but in the rest of the game, the home side dominated, so Inter Turku suffered another defeat. 

Ilves vs Inter Turku pick: Ilves to win

The reasons for this bet are pretty clear, as the teams are in completely opposite forms. Ilves has been on an unstoppable streak, claiming victory in their last four matches with an impressive goal difference of 11:2. In stark contrast, Inter Turku has encountered a series of setbacks, suffering defeat in their last three games and managing a mere goal difference of 2:7.
