Match Prediction
Expected score: JYP 3-2 Pelicans
JYPDrawPelicans
JYP travels to face Pelicans in a Liiga clash that shapes up as a mismatch on paper. The hosts sit fourth in the standings with 35 points from 17 games, while Pelicans languish in 13th with 24 points. Form tells an even starker story: JYP has won four of their last five, while Pelicans have managed just one victory in the same stretch. This is a chance for the visitors to flex their muscle against struggling opposition.
Team form
JYP
JYP arrive in outstanding shape. They've scored 20 goals across their last five outings—4.0 per game—and conceded just 13. That run includes wins over Jokerit (4-2), KooKoo (5-3), and a shutout victory at Lukko (5-0). Their attack is clicking with precision, and their defence is holding firm. Only one defeat in that period, a friendly loss to KalPa, interrupts an otherwise dominant run.
Pelicans
Pelicans are struggling. They've won only once in five games and have shipped 10 goals in that span while scoring just 8. Defeats to Jukurit (1-3) and Tappara (2-3) sit alongside a particularly damaging loss to JYP themselves on 2026-09-19, when they fell 1-3 at home. That recent meeting is telling: JYP already has Pelicans' measure. The hosts' attack is misfiring at 1.6 goals per game, a concern against a side as sharp as JYP.
Head-to-head
No head-to-head history beyond the recent league meeting is available, but that September encounter—a 3-1 JYP victory on Pelicans' home ice—speaks volumes about the gulf in current form and quality.
Key factors
JYP's offensive firepower is the dominant factor here. Averaging 4.0 goals per game, they should find space against a Pelicans defence that has conceded 10 in five matches. Pelicans' inability to score—1.6 per game—makes climbing back into games difficult, especially against opponents as clinical as JYP. The visitors' recent shutout at Lukko shows they can tighten up defensively too, which limits Pelicans' already slim chances of a comeback if they fall behind early.
Prediction
JYP are clear favourites and deserve to be. They're playing at a higher tempo, with sharper finishing and better defensive discipline. Pelicans have shown they can score—their win over KalPa proved that—but consistency is their problem. JYP's form, league position, and the recent head-to-head result all point in one direction. The visitors should control possession and territory, and their attack should break through.
Back JYP to win. They're the stronger side in every meaningful metric, and Pelicans' current struggles make this a favourable matchup for the visitors. Expect a confident performance from JYP, with the most likely outcome a 3-2 victory that reflects their attacking prowess and Pelicans' ability to grab at least one goal despite their poor form.
