IFK Mariehamn

vs

FC TPS Turku

Preview

IFK Mariehamn

• IFK Mariehamn are 12th in the Veikkausliiga 2026 table after 22 games.
• The Grönvitt have found some good form of late with three wins from their last three games, seeing off SJK 2-0, KuPS 4-2 away and FF Jaro 2-0.
• IFK set up in a compact 4-4-2 or 5-3-2 and look to shut the door centrally before springing their counters.
• IFK have won their last two home games, but have only nine goals scored in 11 games so they are just about capable of scoring here even if they don't have enough in the tank to win.

FC TPS Turku

• FC TPS Turku are 8th on 31 points after 22 Veikkausliiga 2026 games.
• The Tepsi are undefeated in their last five games, but back-to-back ties have halted their momentum and they will have to beat their habit of throwing away points to secure a favourable outcome here.
• TPS line up in a 4-3-3 formation designed for the direct transition, tempo and width that their style demands so this has the feel of containment vs penetration.

Head-to-Head

• There have been no wins for IFK and one for TPS in the last three meetings of the teams (D2).
• But while IFK are on a roll, TPS are a better team than their 8th-place position suggests they should be and they have the upper hand in the recent head-to-head record.

Key Players

• Kian Visser has been a lively spark for TPS in front of goal with three in their last five matches, but Albijon Muzaci is the main finisher with nine in 22 Veikkausliiga 2026 games.
• If IFK are to cause an upset, Adam Larsson will have to score a goal or two as he is their main goal scorer with four in 18 Veikkausliiga 2026 appearances.
