The draw was merciful to HJK who have not travelled too much in the cup, and also Magnusson returns from suspension. MIFK mysteriously lost at home vs Haka last weekend, and HJK took easy points from the the weak MyPa side. This could turn out to be more difficult, but HJK are some 60 % favourites again on their home (artificial) turf.

Edit: Some bad news for MIFK in the form of an injury to key defender Mate Dujilo. Took HJK -1.5 @ 2.25 after a long fight with myself, as the initial thought was to back MIFK who are not at all the worst team in the league, but better than MyPa and VPS for example, i am not sure they can handle the defence tonight well enough.

KuPS - TPS
Impossible to predict, and hopefully there are big odds one way or another. KuPS looked tired vs. Honka, and TPS have been underachieving and lost away at KuPS a couple of weeks ago in the league. I have an idea for this, but depends on the odds if it is goods or not.

The final will be played in September, but let us suppose HJK wins the semifinal and the league, then the winner of KuPS - TPS are certain to get an european competition spot for 2011!
