Match preview

The Turku derby sees 8th-placed Turku PS host 2nd-placed Inter Turku in Veikkausliiga action. Inter Turku arrive in strong league standing with 38 points from 20 matches, having suffered only two defeats all season (10 wins, 8 draws, 2 losses). Their away form is formidable, yielding 6 wins, 3 draws, and just 1 defeat while scoring 18 goals in 10 road outings.

Turku PS sit on 29 points from 20 matches (8 wins, 5 draws, 7 losses) and boast an impressive home record of 7 wins, 1 draw, and 2 defeats with 18 goals scored and 9 conceded. They come into this fixture unbeaten in their last three matches, including a 3-1 away victory against VPS and a 1-1 draw at KuPS.

Head-to-head history heavily tilts toward the visitors in recent clashes, with Inter Turku winning the last three encounters across all competitions, including a 2-1 Veikkausliiga win in May 2026 and a 3-0 League Cup victory in February 2026. While Turku PS are resilient at home, Inter Turku's consistency and potent away scoring rate make them difficult to overcome.
