Head-to-Head
- Ilves Tampere have won two of the last three meetings with FF Jaro in Veikkausliiga 2026.
- FF Jaro won the other 2-1 at home eight weeks ago.
Ilves Tampere (home)
- Ilves Tampere are the runaway favorites to see off FF Jaro at Ratinan Stadion this Tuesday, but the visitors do have a chance if they can keep it tight and nick something on the counterattack.
- Keltavihreät have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five games in all competitions and have lost three in a row in Veikkausliiga 2026, against IF Gnistan, VPS and HJK, so they aren't in great form coming into this clash.
- Ilves have scored 1.55 goals a game at Ratinan Stadion while conceding 1.00 on average, while Jaro have scored 0.36 and shipped 2.55 on average away.
FF Jaro (away)
- Jens Karlsson took charge on 1 January 2026 and prefers to put his team into different shapes in an attempt to stay compact and strike quickly on the transition.
- He has the tools to do that, but just as Ilves have been struggling, FF Jaro have lost five straight in all current competitions, with their last three defeats coming at the hands of HJK, AC Oulu and IFK Mariehamn.
- FF Jaro have had no joy on the road in Veikkausliiga 2026, with zero wins, two draws and nine losses in 11 attempts, while Ilves have been solid at home with six wins, one draw and four losses in the same period.
Key Players
Rödvita Familjen have a clear goal scorer in Rudi Vikstroem , who has four in 19 games in Veikkausliiga 2026, but the rest of the team don't seem capable of playing their way through teams.
Betting Insights
Over 2.5 goals at 1.6 and Both Teams To Score at 1.68 look tempting, but the home side are still a clear favorite and should have the better chance to break out of their losing streak.
Prediction
Back Ilves to take the victory on Tuesday.
