Lahti vs FC Inter Predictions

• A total of 20 goals have been scored in Lahti’s last five Veikkausliiga matches (average 4.0).
• At least three goals have been scored in four of FC Inter’s last five away league games.
• FC Inter won 5-1 in the reverse fixture less than a fortnight ago.

Black Drones seek revenge for 5-1 grounding

Goals look guaranteed when, on Saturday, Lahti look to get revenge over FC Inter for the 5-1 thrashing they took in Turku last month. The Black Drones were shot down in convincing style by a Petteri Forsell-inspired FC Inter, although their chances weren’t helped when defender Alan Henrique received a 26th-minute red card for handling on the line.

Everything after that had an air of inevitability about it and the eventual scoreline probably wasn’t a fair reflection of where the two teams are right now. Altin Zeqiri scored a nice consolation goal for Lahti, who overcame another sending-off to win in the cup this week.

FC Inter have produced a mixed bag of away results this season, which could be disconcerting for any of their odds-on backers this weekend. Black and Blues failed to beat struggling SJK on their last away mission, but have gone eight games unbeaten coming into this.

Value to be found in the goal markets

Given the odds on the visitors are slightly prohibitive and Lahti’s home record of one point from a possible 15 this season almost rules them out of the reckoning, the value appears to lie in the goal markets.

A total of 20 goals have been scored in Lahti’s last five Veikkausliiga matches and, with at least three goals coming in four of FC Inter’s last five away league games, the over 2.5 market is the one to target here.

A 2-1 away win also looks the most attractive of the correct score options as FC Inter are yet to keep an away clean sheet this year while they average just under two goals per road trip.
