• The visitors are unbeaten on the road this term, winning two and drawing two.

Islanders face eighth straight defeat

Mariehamn have now lost seven Veikkausliiga games on the spin after their crushing 3-0 defeat at SJK on Wednesday and Lukas Syberjyski’s men are unlikely to fare any better when they tackle HIFK at Wiklof Holding Arena this weekend.

The Islanders’ awful run didn’t exactly look forthcoming after their won their first two games of the season, but they’ve been completely hapless since last tasting victory against Oulu on 9^th May. As well as putting no further points on the board, Mariehamn have now also failed to score in 630 minutes of football.

Morale must be at rock bottom in Syberjyski’s squad and HIFK are a great price to beat them at odds-against this weekend.

The visitors travel to the Aland Islands unbeaten in four starts on the road this season (W2, D2), while they claimed seven points from a possible nine overall prior to their slender 0-1 reverse against leaders HJK last time out.

There’s a temptation to back a win to nil based on the hosts’ lengthy barren spell in front of goal, though the odds are good enough to get behind the away win alone. Correct score backers are advised to supplement though with a 0-2 prediction.
