Finland welcome the visitors Estonia in the Friendly International match. The encounter will be held on Friday, January 11th, at the Khalifa International Stadium (Doha).
In the World Cup qualification, the Finnish national team were second-last, finishing ahead of Kosovo and getting just 2 minimal wins with the same scorline of 1:0 over the bottom-placed club in the outing and over Iceland at home. On their soil, Finland shared points with Kosovo, 1:1, and Turkey, 2:2; and lost to Croatia, 0:1, and Ukraine, 1:2. In 2018 friendly international matches, the Finns conceded only in their outing against Romania, 0:2; drawed against Macedonia, 0:0; won Jordan, 2:1, Malta, 5:0, and Belorussia, 2:0. In the last friendly encounter, Finland have surprisingly beaten the Swedes, making a mini-sensation then.

Estonia took the 4th line in their group, 1 point ahead of the Cyprian team. The nominal guests were seemingly scoring a lot – they made 13 goals in 10 rounds, but 10 of these were netted to the weak Gibraltar, thus, the rest 8 matches saw only 3 Estonians’ goals, of which 1 was in the outing against the Belgian team (Estonia suffered a 1:8 loss in that clash). This year friendly matches Estonia started with 2 away draws – against Sweden, 1:1, and Armenia, 0:0. Next, they lost to Georgia, 0:2, and Morocco, 1:3. In between these clashes, the team competed in the Baltic Cup, featuring a 2:0 win over Lithuania and a 0:1 defeat from Latvia there.
Markku Kanerv will probably set his side right, and we will see the nominal hosts’ outclassing win. The Estonians are unlikely to score in the outing. The Finns played very well against the Swedes in the last match, making many shots on target. The bet on Finland’s success tomorrow seems winning.
Prediction for the match: Finland to win.
