Head-to-Head
FC Inter Turku has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning both of the last two encounters.
FC Inter Turku
- FC Inter Turku are unbeaten in their last three home games in the Veikkausliiga 2026 (W2, D1).
- Vesa Vasara, appointed in 2024, has built his team in his own image and the Inter identity is very high-tempo and attacking.
- His side have been in much better form than TPS of late, winning three, drawing one and losing one of their last five games.
- Their latest results include a thumping 8-0 home win over JS Hercules in the Suomen Cup and a 3-1 away win at Seinajoen Jalkapallokerho.
- Inter lead Veikkausliiga 2026 with 14 points from seven games, whereas TPS are third with 12 points from six.
- Alie Conteh has scored twice in seven for Inter and is their top-scorer in the Veikkausliiga.
- Inter have scored six times in five home league games, which is solid rather than spectacular.
FC TPS Turku
- Ivan Pinol’s TPS side are the team of 'rokkifutis' - a philosophy that has been coined by some Finnish media as a fast-paced style of soccer where teams play high-risk soccer at both ends of the field.
- They will press, push the ball forward quickly, and try to exploit the spaces behind the defense with quick feet and clever runs.
- They have been the better team in their recent outings, beating HJS 3-0 at home in the cup with a confident performance and then falling to a narrow 1-0 away defeat to AC Oulu in the league.
- Theodoros Tsirigotis has hit a patch of form, scoring two of their last four goals in the past five matches, but Albijon Muzaci remains their biggest goal threat with three in six Veikkausliiga games.
- Eetu Turkki is their assist-maker in chief, with four in six games, and he is often the creator of TPS’s attacking moves.
- FC TPS Turku are without an away win in the Veikkausliiga 2026 (D2 from 2).

Betting Insights
Inter are unbeaten at home and TPS are yet to win away, so the oddsmakers are on the mark with the odds at 1.44 for the hosts to secure another derby victory.
Prediction
But the hosts are likely to have enough to finish off TPS here, who have been solid in defence on the road, conceding only three goals in two away games , but they have lacked the clinical edge up front.
