Expected score: Pelicans 1-2 Assat
Pelicans host Assat in a Liiga fixture on 13 November 2026. The visitors arrive as the favourite, holding fifth place in the standings with a commanding record, while the hosts sit 13th and will need to arrest a recent slide in form.
Team form
Pelicans
Pelicans have won only 2 of their last 5 matches, scoring 8 goals and conceding 10 across that run. Their most recent outings have been particularly difficult: three consecutive defeats to JYP, Jukurit and Tappara, with only one goal scored in each of those games. The two victories came against lower-ranked opposition at home, suggesting the side can compete but lacks consistency. At 1.6 goals per game over this stretch, their attacking output has been modest.
Assat
Assat enter on the back of mixed results but with a far superior overall record. They have won 3 of their last 5 outings, though two of those victories came in pre-season friendlies. In their Liiga matches, they beat Ilves 5-1 at home but lost to Karpat 1-3 away. Across all five recent games, Assat averaged 3.2 goals scored and 2.2 conceded, demonstrating a more potent attack than their hosts. Their league position at fifth with 34 points reflects a team competing at a higher level than Pelicans.
Head-to-head
No head-to-head history is available between these sides.
Key factors
The gulf in league standing and recent scoring output favours Assat decisively. Pelicans have conceded 2.0 goals per game in their last five matches and face an opponent averaging 3.2 scored per game over the same period. Assat's superior depth and consistency in the standings suggest they will control possession and create the clearer chances. Pelicans' home advantage offers some mitigation, but their current form—particularly the inability to score more than one goal in three straight defeats—raises serious questions about their ability to breach a visiting side ranked eight places higher. Assat's recent output, even accounting for friendly matches, indicates a team with attacking intent and the quality to execute it.
Prediction
Assat are the favourite based on their league position, recent scoring record and the disparity in team quality. Pelicans have shown they can win at home but only against weaker sides; Assat represent a different calibre of opponent. The visitors' 3.2 goals per game average against Pelicans' 2.0 conceded per game suggests Assat will likely find the net multiple times. While Pelicans may score—they have won at home recently—they will struggle to match Assat's output. The predicted regulation-time score of 1-2 reflects a narrow away victory, consistent with Assat's status as the more likely winner.
Assat are favoured to win this match. Their superior league position, attacking prowess and consistency make them the more likely victor, though Pelicans' home status and recent wins at this venue prevent this from being a one-sided affair. Back Assat to take the points.
