Haka vs Lahti Predictions

• Haka have not defeated Lahti within 90 minutes in a home encounter since 2009 (D6, L1).
• Lahti are unbeaten in 13 of their last 17 away league games, including three of their four trips this season (W2, D1, L1).
• Lahti have scored 18 goals across their last five away games.

An interesting bottom-half encounter

These sides finished in the two highest positions of the relegation group last season and are both within the bottom-half group yet again entering this clash.

FC Haka are certainly not the force of old despite being one of Finland’s most successful clubs, and their winless home record against Lahti across the last 13 years hardly inspires confidence amongst the home faithful, despite their warm favourites tag.

Just two points behind Haka in the standings, Lahti will fancy their chances of springing an upset in this encounter after picking up seven of their paltry eight-point haul on their travels this season.

Stick with the strong travellers

Making the short journey across to Valkeakoski, Lahti will surely enter this one with confidence. They were unbeaten in ten of their 13 away league games last season before continuing the trend with three unbeaten games from four trips this term.

That is not to mention Lahti’s unbelievable recent scoring record away from home, with an almighty 18 goals scored across their last five competitive road trips averaging out to a more than respectable 3.6 per game.

We think the odds could have it all wrong in this game and as such, the value lies with backing Lahti in the double chance market. Moreover, we are sticking with a modest 2-1 away win for small stakes in the correct score market.
