The agreed story. No side to back (HJK Helsinki the favourite), an open game.
Cup and European games. A domestic cup: sides rotate, and the two can come from different divisions. HJK Helsinki in their last cup games: lost 0-1 at FC Inter Turku. Too few cup games to judge the side from.
So. A close match: the safest pick that fits.
Every score's chance from both teams' checked games, never cut or rescaled. The lit square is the likeliest score that fits the read (an open game).
