HIK - Gnistan: betting tip for the Finnish championship match
A match between HJK and Gnistan will take place in the Finnish Top League. The opponents started the season extremely poorly and did not score a single point in the first two rounds. Who will still be able to score the first tournament points in the championship on April 22? The answer is in our betting tip for this confrontation
Command Analysis
HJK
FinlandCurrent form
HJK was unable to compete for the Veikkausliga championship last season, falling as much as nine points behind the champion KUPS. The hosts took only third place, missing out on the championship title for the first time in five years. In 2025, the club's fans clearly expected to return to the fight for the first place, but unfortunately the capital's team failed the first two matches of the championship. Tony Korkeakunnas' team lost to Ilves (2:3) and SIK (0:1). So far, the team is in 10th place out of 12 in the standings.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hostikka will not play due to the red card he received in the previous match. The entrance to the field of Soiniemi is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- The team lost four matches in a row
- In two of the last five matches, the hosts were eliminated.
Approximate line-up: Neuhuis - Simoeki, Tikkanen, Antsoulas, Ilitolva - Kanellopoulos, Ring, Mentu - Meller, Pukki, Michel
IF Gnistan
FinlandCurrent form
The humble Gnistan made his Major League debut last season and performed very well. The club secured itself from relegation quite early and even took the eighth place, which allowed it to take part in the fight for a place in the Conference League selection. There, the guests managed to defeat UPU (1:0), but then lost to Hake (3:4). Unfortunately, Jussi Leppalahti's team started this season with defeats. Gnistan lost on the road first to Hake (2:3), and then to Inter from Turku (0:3). By goal difference, the guests are inferior to today's opponent, which is why they occupy the last place in the table.
Disqualifications and injuries
Marcelo Costa and Olufunwa will not play in this match.
Interesting betting trends
- None of the last seven matches of the guests ended in a draw.
- The team conceded three goals in the first two rounds of the championship.
Approximate composition: Kraninks - Reitala, Ojala, Petersson - Heiskanen - Arko-Mensah, Bashkirov, Eremenko, Hanninen - Vairinen, Latonen

3.65Tip and bets
The hosts lost the first two rounds and clearly intend to break the series of defeats. The fans are clearly not used to seeing their team in the bottom half of the standings, and besides, the upcoming opponent is clearly below the class. We believe that HIC will not leave any chances for Rot in the capital's confrontation.
Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1) on the HIC for 1.67
Bet on the total
The hosts will attack from the very first minute, and the guests failed to prove themselves defensively in the first rounds. Gnistan has conceded six goals in two matches and is unlikely to be able to cope with HICK's attacking onslaught. We think that the match will be effective.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals in 1.63
Betting on corners
We think that HICK will outplay his opponent in all attacking indicators. The number of corner kicks is unlikely to be an exception.
Our betting tip is for an Asian head start (-2.5) on the HIC corners in 1.85
