Haka vs Ilves Betting Tips - Over 2.5 Goals
A high-scoring outcome seems likely when two evenly-balanced Veikkausliiga sides square-off this week.
Separated by just two points, both teams have enjoyed some decent form in recent weeks, while also posting consistently high numbers in the goal markets.
Hosts Haka, currently sixth in the division come into this fixture on the back of an impressive 3:0 road victory at Mariehamn last weekend. Andrew Smith´s men have now won three and lost just one of their last five matches.
Over the past nine games, Haka saw over 2.5 goals scored on five occasions with an average of just over three goals scored in those matches. Smith´s side scored at least two goals in four of their last six home fixtures.
Ilves arrive in Valkeakoski also in decent form over the past month. Joonas Rantanen´s men are unbeaten in their last five matches, while they lost just one of their previous 12 since April.
Placed fourth in the division, Ilves have been particularly reliable for goal chasers. Rantanen´s side have seen at least three goals scored in their last four matches, while they also bagged at least two goals in each of their five previous fixtures.
Recent contests between these sides also delivered in the goal markets. Seven of their last nine meetings, including each of their last four games, saw at least three goals scored.
Considering those numbers, and both sides' recent strong form, I´m confidently backing over 2.5 goals scored on Monday.

Haka boss Smith is expected to keep faith with the same selection that eased past Mariehamn last time out. In-form Belgian playmaker Evangelos Patoulidis will continue to prove creativity in the Haka attack.
