Soccer, Finland Veikkausliiga, Pick on 28.8.2006: FC Haka vs. Tampere United
Game that will play important role for the title, after the yesterday's draw of HJK away to Mariehamn. In case that Haka will win, they will lead the table for the first time this season. Haka is going great during last month, and they are further the best team to the league at the moment, with 8 back to back wins. Popovic is at great form, scored twice last week away to Honka, and there is great squad news as everyone is fit to play tonight. 4-3-3 Attacking formation will be prefered as usually for Haka...
Haka squad : Vilmunen, Kangaskorpi, Okkonen, Viljanen, Ylönen, Kauppila, Fowler, Manninen, Innanen, Popovitch, Lehtinen.
To the away side, this is not the best moment to face Haka. They are mediocre this month, coming from three defeats to their last six games, and from the latest shock result at home against newcomers Vaasa 2:3. Tampere has easier fixture programme in comparison with Haka to the games left to be played (2 times against Kups, against Jaro & away to Honka & HJK). Tampere has only one important absentee for tonight, midfielder Hininen, otherwise everyone else is fit to play.
Tampere Squad : Kavén, Kuoppala, Marchis, Lindström, Aho, Wiss, Savolainen J, Saarinen, Kujala, Niemi, Lehtinen.
I don't think that Haka will lose points to this one at this particular period. 8/8 wins and 2.20 for home win is something special, against a team that is very unstable to their results, and have easier fixture programme, so they can recover.
