Match Preview:
A place in the Finnish Cup semi-finals is on the line as Ekenas IF (EIF) takes on FF Jaro at Tammisaari Centralfield this Tuesday afternoon. EIF secured their quarter-final spot with a tight 1-0 win over OLS Oulu, while FF Jaro advanced after a thrilling 5-4 penalty shootout victory against VPS.

EIF, recently relegated from the top flight, have shown resilience, remaining unbeaten in their last three matches and now sitting just six points off promotion places. They'll enter this cup tie with confidence, aiming to continue their resurgence.

In contrast, FF Jaro, who were promoted last season, find themselves in a precarious position. After only eleven games, they sit in the bottom three of the top flight, facing an uphill battle to avoid immediate relegation.

Despite EIF's recent defensive solidity, their head-to-head record against Jaro suggests a high-scoring affair. Ekenas has kept only one clean sheet in their last seven meetings with Jaro, conceding at least two goals in three of their last four encounters. This history, combined with both teams' offensive capabilities, points towards an open game.

Match Prediction: Over 2.5 goals.
