AC Oulu hosts Honka in round 7 of the Finnish Veikkausliiga. The match will be played on Friday, June 11th at Raatin stadion (Oulu)
Ac Oulu is one of the youngest projects in the country. The team was founded only in 2002, on the basis of several local teams. Within a few years, it managed to break into the top division of the country for the first time. But at first, purely sporting failures interfered, and 10 years ago, financial problems also led to the fact that the Blue-Whites were forcibly sent to Ykkonen. Once again, AC Oulu won the right to return to the elite only in the previous season, winning the country's 2nd division. But so far, it has been failing in Veikkausliiga! The team lost all five matches with a total score of 3-12. However, the first success can change everything.

In recent years, FC Honka has given a lot of diametrical emotions to its fans. At the turn of the first decades of the new century, the Black-and-Yellows showed a good segment. They won silver medals three times and took various cups of the country as many times. But after the vice-championship in 2013, they dropped to 11th place. And due to financial problems, Honka had to go to Division 3. Returning to the elite took only three years. The Black-and-Yellows didn’t manage to fully regain their positions, but they did not fall below 4th place and even won bronze medals in 2019. In the current season, they have already played six matches, that is, more than the main part of the teams. And Honka won only against the newcomer of the league, KTP (3-1 away on May 7). The other games ended in defeats, and the team couldn’t even score in the last rounds (0-1 against Lahti and SJK). As a result, the Black-and-Yellows are in the penultimate place at the beginning of the summer.
In 2019 and 2020, the teams played against each other in the national cup. Both matches took place on the pitch of Oulu, but Honka won twice with a minimum goal difference. Now bookmakers give more chances to a more experienced opponent, Honka. But the team has obvious problems in the attack. We think it’s better to choose the option with Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
