Lillestrom vs Rosenborg Analysis<\/h2>\n

Second-from-bottom IFK Mariehamn hosts last year\u2019s Finnish Veikkausliiga champions, HJK, on Wednesday and will be looking to find a result after winning just one game all season.<\/p>\n

HJK comes off a draw against AC Oulu over the weekend but still remains tied for first place in the league with only goal difference separating themselves and KuPS at the top of the table.<\/p>\n

HJK have enjoyed a dominant run over IFK Mariehamn in recent seasons, winning four straight in league action, allowing an average of just 0.25 goals per game against them over that run. However, IFK Mariehamn did enjoy a 3-2 victory over HJK back in February of this year in the Liiga Cup.<\/p>\n

HJK Remains Formidable Away From Home<\/h3>\n

While \u2018Helsingin Jalkapalloklubi\u2019 have stumbled at home a few times already this season, their road form has been absolutely fantastic with 14 points from six games and zero losses.<\/p>\n

A large part of that success for HJK has been their ability to hold opponents scoreless in games, keeping an 83-percent clean sheet record away from home this year and allowing the league\u2019s fewest expected goals against average this season also.<\/p>\n

IFK Mariehamn Looking To Turn Stats Into Results<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s no question that IFK Mariehamn have been struggling to score goals this season over in the Finnish Veikkausliiga.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Saarelaiset\u2019 have netted just eight times this season and is tied for the fewest overall goals in the league this year.<\/p>\n

That fact doesn\u2019t match up with their offensive stats however as IFK Mariehamn rank top-half in the league this season in terms of overall expected goal average, but have simply failed to convert those chances.<\/p>\n

IFK Mariehamn vs HJK Prediction<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s hard to look past backing the under in this game, especially set at 2.75, as despite their impressive chances created record this year, IFK Mariehamn just haven\u2019t been able to score.<\/p>\n

Mariehamn ranks bottom of the league over their last five games in the Veikkausliiga form table, averaging just 0.20 points per game and prior to last weekend\u2019s 3-2 shootout against Haka, Mariehamn averaged just 0.40 goals per game across their previous five league starts also.<\/p>\n

HJK are used to shutting out IFK Mariehamn in league action and that should be no different here so we like both the HJK to win-to-nil<\/strong> prop going off at a healthy +150 and the under 2.75 goals<\/strong> in this one in Wednesday\u2019s Finnish Veikkausliiga matchup between HJK and IFK Mariehamn.<\/p>\n
