Tampereen Ilves vs AC Oulu Prediction: We expect a tight clash here

The Finland Veikkausliiga game between Tampereen Ilves and AC Oulu will take place at the Tammelan Stadion on May 05, 2023.

Tampereen Ilves

DWLWW

Ilves is looking to add another victory to their record following their most recent result, a 1-0 triumph against KTP in the Veikkausliiga.

Ilves' most recent results demonstrate that quality has been present in their defence all along. Ilves have not been particularly generous, as seen by the fact that only three goals have been scored against them in their past six matches. Whatever the case may be, all that remains is to determine whether or not the pattern will continue in the game that is coming up next.

Ilves had not tasted defeat in any of their previous three home league matches heading into this one.

AC Oulu

LWDDL

After suffering a loss in the last round of the Veikkausliiga competition at the hands of SJK, AC Oulu will be looking to make redemption in this matchup.

This team is currently in seventh place in the table, having won once, drawn twice, and lost once.

In their last six games, AC Oulu's offence has been on fire, scoring a total of six goals. The sum of the goals that have been scored against them over that time period brings the total up to 7.

Ilves - Virtanen (GK), Maenpaa, Katz, Miettunen, Aspegren, Hasa, Arifi, Pennanen, Haarala, Larsson, Parfitt-Williams.

Expert Betting Tips

AC Oulu will need a lot of favourable circumstances to be able to break through the defence of this Ilves team, which is expected to win. We anticipate a small number of goals to be scored in this match as well, with the first half possibly ending in a draw.
