HJK HELSINKI
HJK will hope to turn this around in this fixture as they slept on their opener against Betis when they were beaten 2-0 at their home ground. Willian Jose’s brace was enough to sink HJK, a penalty in the 45th minute gave Betis the lead and the 64th goal meant no comeback for the Finish side.
Some charges seems to be put in place as they won in their most recent fixture on the road against Honka, Koskela’s troops made sure they took charge of the game, with an early lead in the third minute, but the pressure came as they allowed Honka to equalize, thanks to Olusanya’s late strike as they claimed all three points in injury time.
