Switzerland

Finland

Match Preview

In the 2nd round of the Czech Hockey Games, the teams of Switzerland and Finland will face off. The match will take place at the "Winning Group Arena" in Brno. The Finns are considered big favorites and will do everything to take a second consecutive victory in the final stage of the Euro Hockey Tour.

Switzerland is having a poor season. In all previous stages, they finished last, earning a meager two points. And it seems that the "crusaders" are powerless to change the situation. In the opening round of the Czech Games, they put up a fight against the Swedes, but lost again. Against two goals from the opponent, Patrick Fischer's protégés responded with just one goal scored by Türkoglu.

But the Finns, having won the previous stage, are set for another triumph. In the first round, they thrashed the Czechs with a score of 4-1, thus becoming leaders of the quartet. Even a huge advantage in accurate shots (39-16) did not help the hosts to win. By the middle of the third period, Jukka Jalonen's charges were leading by three pucks, and they scored the fourth into an empty net towards the end.

Probable lineups:

Switzerland: Berra – Loeffel, Siegenthaler – Türkoglu, Hischier, Kurashev

Finland: Säteri – Kaski, Rissanen – Puljujärvi, Kapanen, Innala

Matches between these teams often turn out to be high-scoring. And the fact that the total over 4.5 goals has been played in 6 out of the last 7 games of Switzerland only convinces us that their upcoming meeting will delight with an abundance of goals.
