HJK Helsinki vs Gnistan Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

HJK Helsinki were up against Gnistan in the Veikkausliiga of Finland on April 22. At full-time, Gnistan sealed a 0-1 victory over HJK Helsinki.

The scoreline opened on the 60th minute when Joakim Latonen converted the penalty, giving Gnistan the lead and ultimately sealing the victory.

A sense of anticipation builds as HJK Helsinki and Gnistan renew their battle, 3 months after their League Cup Group Stage face-off that concluded in a 0-1 victory for Gnistan. HJK Helsinki are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to SJK and Ilves, having failed to win in their last four outings. Tightening up at the back might be their best chance to shift momentum, especially given the fact their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have been conceding goals for ten consecutive home matches now.

Gnistan's most recent outing, on the other hand, ended in a victory against Gnistan-M35, setting a positive tone ahead of this match.
