KuPS Akatemia vs Tampere United Betting Tips - Over 2.5 Goals

Goals should be expected in Sunday's Finnish Ykkönen encounter with hosts KuPS seeing plenty of high-scoring outcomes in recent weeks.

Tampere United have enjoyed the better form of these sides, picking up four wins from their last six league fixtures. Conversely, KuPS Akatemia have lost five of their last six games, including each of the previous four. 

Looking to bounce back from a disastrous 6:1 defeat at Inter II last weekend, the hosts have proven a particularly reliable choice in the goal markets this season. Nine of KuPS Akatemia's last ten games saw at least three goals scored, with an average of 4.2 goals per game scored in those fixtures. 

At home, each of KuPS last six games saw a minimum of three goals scored, and a similar outcome seems likely this weekend. 

Tampere United makes the trip to Kuopio after a 2:2 draw against PKKU last Sunday. Ardian Kovaqi's stoppage time goal rescued a point for Tero Suonperä`s side. 

While not quite as prolific in the goal markets, both of Tampere's last two games saw BTTS and a minimum of four goals scored. 

With both teams involved in several exciting encounters in the early part of the season, I expect another goal-filled contest on Sunday.

Over 2.5 goals is my first pick, with BTTS and over 3.5 goals also likely to land in Kuopio.
