Rovaniemi - Ilves Prediction, Picks and Taips

RoPS Rovaniemi and Ilves meet forces at Rovaniemen Keskuskenttä, in a match for Matchday 4 of the Veikkausliiga. The history of direct confrontations played in this stadium is favorable to the home team, which in the last 6 matches has won 4, tied 1 and lost 1. But the last time these two teams played a match in this stadium, on 12‑ 05‑2019, for the Veikkausliiga, Ilves won by (0‑1). T. Fofana (31 ') scored the only goal of the match. Pay attention to the home factor, since the RoPS Rovaniemi tends to achieve different results at home and abroad.

The home team is currently in 10th position, with 1 point won, after 1 draw and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost at home to HIFK, by (0‑1). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Haka, by (2‑2). This is a stronger team with the support of their fans, since in the last 30 games they have recorded 1 victory, 4 draws and 10 losses as a visitor, with 11 goals scored and 30 suffered; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses in his stadium, with 17 goals scored and 16 suffered. In their last 10 home matches, RoPS Rovaniemi has recorded 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. Rops' team comes to this match without motivation, as they face a difficult phase. There are five games without a victory this season, three of them in the current competition: two losses and a draw against Haka in the last round. And we can see that much of the blame for the team's poor phase falls on its defensive system, which, in three rounds so far, has conceded six goals. In the last match, the team came to the net twice, but the defense lost the tie to the opponent in the second half. The tie even served to knock Rops out of last place on the table, but it is unlikely that the team will be able to contain an opponent like Ilves Tampere, who fights at the top of the table. Still, in the last game between the teams last year, the score was 2-2.

The visiting team is currently in 3rd place, with 7 points won, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match to Inter Turku, by (5‑1). In the last match, they tied in a home match against KuPS Kuopio, by (0‑0). This is a team that presents similar results at home and away, so it is not usually affected by the home factor, since in the last 30 games it has recorded 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses as a visitor; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in his stadium. In the last 10 away matches Ilves has recorded 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 3 of the last 4 matches for this competition. In the last 10 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 16 goals between minutes (76' ‑ 90 '). Ilves Tampere's team comes to this match under pressure to win, as it comes from two bad results. After winning in the first two rounds, the team was defeated by Inter Turku, who isolated himself in the lead of the competition. In his last game, against a direct competitor in the fight for leadership, Ilves proved to have restored the defensive system, but he also didn't balance the networks and was in the goalless draw at home. Now playing outside their domain, but facing a team at the bottom of the table, Ilves Tampere needs victory to threaten the leadership again. To do so, it will be necessary for Ala-Myllymäki and Mettäla, their best scorers, to take advantage of the opponent's fragile defense, which is very likely to happen. However, the team's defensive system is cause for concern as they have conceded eight goals in the past four games.
