Sjk vs Mariehamn Prediction

SJK host Mariehamn on 18 September 2026 at 18:00 in Veikkausliiga. The hosts sit fourth but have lost their way over the past six matches, winning only once. A 0-2 defeat to Mariehamn on 15 August still stings. SJK's defensive frailty has become the defining problem: they conceded seven goals across their recent run and look vulnerable at the back. Elias Mastokangás broke a two-game scoreless streak with a goal against Jaro last time out, but the attack remains sluggish. Mariehamn arrive with momentum from that August win and have the upper hand in this season's head-to-head record.

Form and H2H

SJK average 0.80 goals for and 1.20 against over their last ten games at home. Mariehamn score 1.30 and concede 1.59 away from Turku. The head-to-head record between these sides is mixed: SJK won 4-0 in 2015 and 3-0 in 2015, but Mariehamn took a 1-0 victory in 2016 and drew 2-2 in 2014. Recent form favours the visitors, who beat SJK 2-0 just weeks ago.

Best Bet

Mariehamn will not lose. The visitors have won four of their last ten away matches and hold the edge in direct competition this season. SJK's defensive troubles and lack of attacking thrust make them vulnerable. Back a Mariehamn draw or win at 1xBet 3.8 for the draw or 1xBet 4.31 for the away win.
