Bitesize Prediction: Oulu vs SJK – 24/06/25

Competition: Suomen Cup

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 7/10 @ 1xBet

Two camps who will turned their attention back to Suomen Cup action on Tuesday afternoon, Oulu will welcome SJK to the Raatti Stadium.

Starting with the hosts, while Oulu might have extended on their Suomen Cup adventure earlier in the month as they edged past PK-35, Mikko Isokangas’ side find themselves at the heart of a real rut. Last seen slumping to a 2-1 defeat away at Jaro, the Navy Blues have lost their back-to-back Veikkausliiga appearances by an aggregate score of 6-1. Likewise, while Oulu might have clung to their top-flight status, the former Hercules boss finds his squad pencilled in as a landslide relegation contender in 2025. In fact, Tuesday’s hosts have remarkably registered just five points from any of their first 12 Veikkausliiga matchups this season. Claiming just a single clean sheet since opening up the 2025 campaign, Isokangas’ men have shown some major defensive issues. Along with shipping eight goals in their last three showdowns against Veikkausliiga opposition, they also hold the second-worst defensive tally among Finland’s elite.

As for the visitors, while Oulu might find themselves in the midst of a public struggle, SJK have embarked on quite the flurry. Booking their Round of 16 ticket earlier in the month as they cruised their way to a 7-0 romp against KPV, Stevie Grieve’s side are riding a major wave of momentum. Last seen putting in another action-packed display as they clinched a 3-2 win away at Ilves, the Seinajoki-based outfit have skyrocketed their way up the Veikkausliiga table. Along with a 3-1 victory against Jaro on June 14th, Tuesday’s guests have won their previous three appearances across all competitions by an aggregate score of 13-3. Really finding a clinical edge in the final third, SJK have also registered 18 goals in just their last five outings. It should also be highlighted, Grieve’s side have notched at least a pair of goals in eight of their last nine matchups – a run that stems all the way back to May 2nd.

Bet: Both teams to score at Oulu vs SJK 7/10 for Tuesday’s Suomen Cup tie @ 1xBet
