Haka hosts Lahti in round 7 of the Finnish Veikkausliiga. The match will be played on Tuesday, June 15th at Tehtaan Kenttä (Valkeakoski)
Haka had an extremely weak start to the season. And they didn’t look convincing during the pre-season preparation. In general, there were no victories in seven consecutive games. The current championship brought only two wins over Mariehamn and KuPS. But these opponents do not reach the level of Lahti. The first team is one of the outsiders. The second club is a middle peasant. Lahti has shown a great start and is in the top three. A weak start immediately reduced the chances of Haka for something meaningful at the end of the current championship. Moreover, the White- Blacks may experience problems with outsider neighbors. Haka does not look stronger on its field. That is, you should not be afraid of the team there, as it has not gained victories in the last five games (one draw and four defeats).

Lahti made a couple of misfires during the championship. However, the team lost to HJK, which is the leader of the championship. And the defeat to KuPS turned out to be silly, as the opponent was presented with the majority. But this did not prevent Lahti from gaining good momentum again, because the last three games ended in victories. Moreover, they conceded only one goal in those games. And they scored seven times, which now speaks of their advantages in many aspects. Lahti had no problems with teams befitting Haka. It dealt with Honka and confidently beat Ilves and Mariehamn. Ilves was the most formidable team on this list, but this did not prevent Lahti from gaining a victory with a 2-goal advantage. This means that Lahti should not have any problems in the match versus Haka.
Of course, Lahti will be motivated to score points in this game, since the gap to second and first places is small now. And it will be extremely unforgivable for Lahti to lose points in matches against outsiders in such a situation, because it will be much more difficult to score points in the next games. Therefore, the visitors must gain at least a draw now. Moreover, Lahti knows how to play against Haka. In the last 15 head-to-head confrontations, Haka won against Lahti only two times. I don't expect the hosts to win this game either. I think that the visitors will at least not lose.
Prediction for the match: Lahti to win with +0.5 handicap
