Again, there's not much to say. In the top match last week YPA left PS Kemi without chances, and I doubt that even if Eissele were eligible and Pasher was playing at full strength that the result would have been much different. Now that 7/8 of the teams have played here in Oulu, YPA's display is still on a completely different level than what the other teams have shown. They played AC Oulu style short passing without the unnecessary alibi passes in midfield, and as you can see from their results the players actually have high enough skill level to execute that kind of stuff. However, for someone who doesn't understand a thing about the finesse details of tactics, the most striking thing in YPA was their very high tempo or speed which you usually only see in Ykkönen games here. But despite that, I'm still a little sceptical about a SJK type of undefeated season, though OPS/OPA 2009 type of record shouldn't be that far-fetched if the key players manage to stay healthy. TP-47 played a quite tight game against VIFK, or that is if you take the average from the two reports, so the 3-1 result is a bit misleading. Like the hosts today, they're playing very well right now, but player by player YPA is far ahead of TP-47 and given that YPA looks pretty unbeatable right now it's quite hard to make any arguments for away win without resorting to senseless hoping. Goals look very likely to come; in the combined matches of YPA and TP-47 only 4 out of 20 have had fewer than three goals, and even those were mostly against under teams. It would be somewhat easy to continue raving about YPA's excellent attack and rattle off stats supporting the over, but instead of that it could be helpful to look the other way. The quality is gap between the teams is considerable, but TP-47 is still by no means a poor team. In fact, the top-5 position has been fully deserved so expecting this to descend into a blowout (such as against PK-37 or Tervarit) is a fairly unreasonable. Additionally, TP-47 still misses a big chunk of their offense in Bobb, who has scored 5 and probably assisted just as many, and that's not good news against a team with such a quality defense as YPA.
