Veikkausliiga clubs have played 4 rounds in a short period of time and today the table looks like this, JJK top the table and it is no surprise that MyPa are in the bottom.
| JJK | 4 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 7-3 | 10 | unstable but potential |
| HJK | 4 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 7-3 | 9 | champions also this season |
| Inter | 4 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 6-2 | 7 | still lack the match-killer |
| Mariehamn | 4 | 2 | 1 | 2 | 7-4 | 7 | solid |
| Honka | 4 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 2-4 | 7 | young, talented, make mistakes |
| TPS | 4 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 5-5 | 6 | most unstable, good and bad |
| Jaro | 4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 5-5 | 4 | not as good as last season |
| RoPS | 4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 5-6 | 4 | Fighters! Where will it take them? |
| VPS | 4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3-5 | 4 | Mean at home, weak away |
| Haka | 4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 4-7 | 4 | The world still think they are a power |
| KuPS | 4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 4-7 | 4 | Will be upper half |
| MYPA | 4 | 0 | 1 | 3 | 1-5 | 1 | Relegation worries are for real. Gray |
HJK have already lost once, which is no surprise because they are not performing as reliably away than they do at home, but so far they have been convincing and are well on track for the title. In the bottom both RoPS and Haka have already won once, but when will the next win come? Next round on Thursday and Friday, one of the tastiest matches is Haka-Honka. Haka after all are the only club who did beat Honka in the pre-season in their own arena. Pay-back time?
Ykkönen clubs have played uneven amount of matches because there are 13 clubs in that league. Alll of them seem to have their problems. The biggest favourites Oulu and Lahti are missing strikers, Oulu because Jonke decided to leave the club and Lahti because of injuries of Rafael and Kemppinen. Most clubs are in relegation fight because 4 will be relegated directly and the biggest candidates for that are Espoo, HIFK and KPV. PoPa might be the surprise package to join the relegation battle instead of promotion fight. Lost all three and there is talk of economical worries in the organization.
Kakkonen have finished 3 rounds in all 3 groups A, B and C. Too early to make see any trends really and many of the clubs work as reserves to League clubs and for example former NT player and experienced professional Aki Riihilahti played for Klubi-04 last weekend in their 6-1 win over Kuusysi. Easy to see that at Kakkonen C SJK are exactly as good as expected and are unbeaten so far with a goal difference of 8-0.
Teams that are likely to rise a lot in the table when summer comes are at least Atlantis, and Kuusysi in group A, where also Sudet top my list of relegation candidates (3 or 4 from each group), in B there will one or two very lucky but bad teams as it is very much split into two categories. Ilves will top the league after the season and the other top-7 clubs are Jazz, BK-46, Pallo-Iirot, SalPa, Åbo IFK and JäPS, the remaining 5 will fight to win each other and stay in the league.
