THE PREDICTION
The 2021 Finnish Cup final will be contested by HJK and KuPS at Helsingin olympiastadion, always a hugely special occasion. HJK reached the final courtesy of a dominating 4-0 victory over Inter Turku in the semi-finals, whilst KuPS edged past Honka 2-1 in a hard-fought encounter. KuPS head into this final with an opportunity to make history, having not won the Finnish Cup since 1989. To do so however, they must beat the reigning cup winners and league champions, who have clearly established themselves as the top team in Finland. HJK have made a good start to the new league season with four points accrued from their opening two games, compared to KuPS’ one point. Whilst KuPS will no doubt give it everything they have in this final, HJK boast the far superior all-round squad and providing they avoid any indiscipline or complacency, they should be able to win this match over 90 minutes and secure their 15th Finnish Cup triumph.
